A member asked:
Ear pain and sensitive scalp right side what it can be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible swimmer's: ear (infection of ear canal). Moisture from swimming (or sometimes from showering) stays in the ear canal and makes it a good place for bacteria and fungus to grow, then causing inflammation of the ear canal. This can be very painful and the pain often radiates up to the scalp. Please see your doctor to diagnose properly and get the correct treatment.
