I ve always had about 4 -6 ear infections every year, but this year was fine. Until my ear drum. Tho it doesn t feel like a ear infection, any idea what it could be?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptomsseem to be related to a reactive lymph node.
The swollen lymph node are usually related to an infection in the ear.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest using antibiotic ear drops for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
