Ear Pain: Greetings. The ear pain you are describing makes me think about a Eustachian Tube Dysfunction or possibly even Otitis Media. It sounds like you may have allergies that commonly precede Otitis Media or ETD. An antihistamine like Claritin, Zyrtec or Allegra may help. You can add Nasacort (triamcinolone) or Flonase too. All these medications are available over the counter. If it persists, see your ENT Doctor.
