Earache

[recklessruby]

Please please if anyone has any tips to stop the pain help me! I have had a bad earache since this morning after a shower and it's making me miserable.
I have tried olive oil and painkillers and ear spray

Try a hotwater bottle well covered and held against the ear for a while. Try both paracetamol (or cocodamol if severe) and ibuprofen alternated

I was thinking of a hot water bottle. Am on holiday and don't want to waste a day in pain.
