What is Causing My Ear Pain?

​

Ear pain can result from a variety of factors, such as:

​

• A hit to the ear or head while playing sports, at work, or during an accident

• An ear infection

• On object stuck in the ear, such as a cotton swab, hair pin, or insect

• Eustachian tube dysfunction

• A sinus infection

• A ruptured eardrum

​

Be sure to seek ear pain treatment from a medical professional if:

​

• Your ear pain worsens or does not improve within 24 to 48 hours

• Your ear pain is accompanied by fever or dizziness

• You think your pain may be caused by an object that is stuck in your ear

• There is clear or bloody fluid coming out of your ear

• Your ear pain suddenly stops after being severe (a possible sign of a ruptured eardrum)

​

Lifeline Urgent Care swiftly provides treatment for many causes of ear pain. Our board-certified physicians can perform lab tests onsite to confirm the source of your discomfort and design a treatment plan to help you feel better as quickly and safely as possible. We also work with local primary care providers to arrange prompt referrals, if necessary.
