I have a pain in my ear that feels like little spasms and as if someone is poking in my ear. It is not a continuous pain.

It is advised to seek medical attention if the ear pain has been present for more than a week, if there is a decrease in hearing, if there are ear drainage, if there is a fever, if there is a constant ringing in the ear, or if the symptoms started after exposure to a loud noise. If pulling on the earlobe worsens the symptoms, the issue may be related to the ear canal, and a visit to the pharmacy for evaluation and possible ear drops may be recommended.
