Hurting pinnae: Depending on how you slept, you may have put undue pressure on your ear. It basically will Improve or go away. You have to be patient. NSAIDS will only deal with the immediate, short term pain. I think that examining your pillows and considering a replacement is definitely in line. You may be interested in seeing if that gives you relief. If the discomfort is still there in 24 hours, let me know.
