A member asked:
I have been experiencing sharp piercing pain in my inner ear. may i ask if i should consult with an ent doc or gp?

When do you say in inner ear, you mean behind the tympanic membrane? Usually it is otitis media. That can be very well treated by the GP or ENT. I will probably go to GP first. I hope it helps.
