In order to answer that question, I would need to know more about the ear pain. The first step in treating pain is always to diagnose the cause of the pain and then determine the best treatment. For instance, is the ear pain from an infection? If so, an antibiotic and ear drops may provide the best pain relief. If the ear pain is related to tinnitus, it is much more difficult to treat. There are many other causes of ear pain, so diagnosing the cause is key.
