Ear Pain is a cause of many underlying conditions of the ear and is medically called otalgia. Ear pain is categorized into two types such as primary and secondary ear pain. Primary ear pain originates in the ear and occurs mainly due to barotrauma, which means air or water pressure changes, building up of earwax, eustachian tube dysfunction, middle ear infections, inner ear infections, ruptured ear drum and swimmer's ear. Secondary ear pain is caused due to a condition that is not related to ears but still causes ear pain. This type of ear pain occurs due to allergies, colds, GERD, toothaches, TMJ disorders, tonsillitis, sore throat and sinusitis. Ear pain is usually dealt by taking medications such as antibiotics, antifungals and corticosteroids, using hot cold packs, ear drops and cleaning ears with care.
