Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain there is a possibility that inflammation inside the ear seems to be due to infection in the ear and it can be very well treated..

You can take a short course of antibiotics like Augmentin..
Take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Advil or Motrin..
You can also take a short course of steroids..
Antibiotic and steroid ear drops should be put in the ears..
Avoid excessive water exposure to the ears like Swimming that can even cause ear infection..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
