Ear canal: Was the infection in the ear canal or the ear drum? If ear drum infection usually there is an earache and oral antibiotics are needed. Ear canal problems are treated with ointments or drops. The movement you feel on opening jaws may be wax which was moved when the cream was instilled.If you're not happy with your current ear status, consult an Otolaryngologist.
