Could use your help docs! my ear hurts when i listen to music?

How loud: Listening to music almost never causes otalgia (ear pain). The only thing i can think of is whether the music is so loud that the decibel level causes pain. Again, that would be unlikely because it takes an extremely loud noise to produce ear pain. In general, listening to music should not cause pain. See ENT doctor for exam and audiogram.
