It can be constant or intermittent, and is\nmost common in children.&nbsp;Symptoms will vary depending up on the cause of the\near pain; however, symptoms may include redness, swelling, fever, fullness or\npressure, itching, drainage, decreased hearing, tinnitus (ringing in&nbsp;one or both&nbsp;ears)&nbsp;and\ndrainage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are experiencing severe ear\npain, dizziness, headache, a discharge of blood or pus from the ear, swelling,\nand facial muscle weakness, seek medical attention. If pain does not dissipate\nin 24 to 48 hours or worsens, or your symptoms continue, see a doctor. A sudden\ndecrease in severe pain also warrants medical attention, as it may indicate a\nruptured eardrum.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/medicalhearingclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/iStock-865687782-2048x1365.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-506\" width=\"800\" height=\"527\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2>How Are Earaches\nTreated?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since there are many causes of\nearaches, treatment will depend on the cause. Treating the cause should relieve ear pain\nin most situations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the meantime, there are steps you\ncan take to treat ear pain at home. Apply a cold, wet washcloth to the ear for\nat least twenty minutes.&nbsp;Lay on the side with the ear that doesn\u2019t hurt\nclosest to the ground.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sit in an upright position to reduce ear pressure,\nchew on something to help relieve pain, and use over-the-counter pain\nrelievers. Eardrops can also be administered, unless you suspect an eardrum\nperforation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help prevent earaches, refrain from\ninserting objects in your ears. Dry your ears thoroughly after bathing or\nswimming, avoid tobacco smoke, and reduce your exposure to allergy triggers\nsuch as pollen and dust.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Call <span class=\"company-name \">Medical Hearing Clinic<\/span> at <a href=\"tel:+18013995014\" class=\"phone \"> <span class=\"phNum\">(801) 399-5014<\/span><\/a> for more information or to schedule an appointment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&nbsp;Causes&nbsp;Earaches?&nbsp;&nbsp;
