Severe ear pain in adults

Hi. I am 25-years old, a male and for the past one week I have been experiencing a severe pain in my left ear. There’s also a buzzing sound I sometimes feel along with loss of hearing in the left ear. I am confused if it’s an ear infection or not. Can someone tell me what are the inner ear infection symptoms in adults?
