I have this internal pain in my left ear, can this be cause by the earphones i am using (iphone earphones)?

Sure: If the earphones don't fit properly, they can cause discomfort in the external auditory canal. If the pain persists, make an appointment with your physician, and a simple exam should be able to confirm our suspicions.
