Need drops Rx: It sounds like you need to have that ear looked at. A prescription for ear drops to help with the swelling, infection and pain. You may need a wick inserted for a few days to help the medicine get into the swollen ear canal.

See a doctor today!: Please see a doctor today to find out what is going on and start appropriate treatment. An ear infection (which is what this appears to be) can rapidly become a very serious condition given the close proximity to the skull base and the brain!
