A member asked:

How can we ease the pain caused by the ant inside the ear?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

ED: Go to you ED Doctor ASAP. If you are certain about this you can try pouring water and let the ant die if you are too far away from the ED. Regardless, this is without a doubt a painful situation and needs to be taken care promptly
