Pain in the ear
A couple of days back I had bruised my ear from the inside while using earbuds to clean the ear.
There was minor blood spot on the ear bud.
I have been having pain in the same ear for last 5-6 days. It increases in evening. What can I do for relief?

It may be due to infection on the bruised area, called otitis externa or infection in your middle ear ie otitis media. U need to show ua ears on a thorough consultation to come to a diagnosis.
Keep ua ear absolutely dry, don’t allow even a drop of water in ua ear. Never use ear buds again.

Ear buds are for external use only. It should not be inserted in the ear. Pain because of infection. Ciplox ear drops 4 drops 3 times a day.
