Neurologist,  's  Response
Trauma to head may lead to internal bleeding. In your case ear fullness and decreased hearing points to possibility Of temporal bone fracture. I will advise to visit your neurosurgeon or neurologist and plan a CT head with bone window. A consultation from E.N.T specialist may be required.
Hope you recover early.
