My ears hurt what is the best thing to do?

You can take: Tylenol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen, if you have no medical contraindication to them, for the pain. If the pain continues, you should see your doctor, so that they can see if you have an ear infection or not. We can't diagnose that without seeing your ears.
