Good morning, ma'am,
Besides the pain, do you have any other symptoms such as hearing loss, nasal congestion or discharge, coughing, fever, ear discharge or other?
Have you tried anything for this problem?

no other symptoms, except for a slight decrease in hearing in this ear. i take acetaminophen and it takes the pain away. the pain is diminishing i think. had mL night and haven't needed to take painkillers since.

Thanks for the feedback.
Acetaminophen is indeed the first line of treatment at this point. I am reassured that you have reported an improvement. In this case we continue to monitor. If the situation persists for more than a week without improvement, a physician should be consulted to properly assess the situation and, if necessary, not to delay appropriate management.
I will remain available if you have any further questions!
