Suggest Home Remedy For Ear Ache.

My ear just started hurting today. The pain has been getting worse throughout the day. It hurts when I burp, swallow, and somewhat when touching it. I used to get ear infections all the time when I was a lot younger and had tubes put in my ears once. Not sure what would cause an ear infection if I have one, I haven t went swimming and I don t have any other symptoms. What could this be and can I treat it at home?
