Pain
Internal ear pain can be caused
by either an inflammation
of the middle ear (Otitis
media). The inflammation occurs
as a result of a middle ear
infection. Or it can be due
to a perforated eardrum, which
is a hole or rupture in the
eardrum, a thin membrane that
separates the ear canal and
the middle ear.
Infection of the outer ear
structures (Otitis Externa)
typically occurs in swimmers,
but since the cause of the infection
is water trapped in the ear
canal, bathing or showering
may also cause this common infection.
