A member asked:

What do you suggest if my ears hurt pretty bad.. i'm not really sure what's wrong but they hurt from the inside.. maybe its from air conditioner?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ibuprofen and see Dr: Many things can cause ear pain including inner ear infections, infections to the ear canal, and foreign object to name a few. While you can take some ibuprofen and see if that makes things more comfortable for you I suggest that you have a medical professional exam your ears as each of these conditions is treated in a different manner.
