An infection in your right ear can cause pain, swelling, or discharge and may be bacterial or viral. You should avoid inserting anything into your ear, keep it dry, and consult your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment, which may include ear drops or antibiotics if needed.

Since you had Tympanoplasty, mild pain and heaviness in that ear can be due to pressure changes from Eustachian tube dysfunction, a minor infection, or fluid buildup behind the eardrum. Avoid water entry into the ear, don?t use drops without advice, and try steam inhalation or gentle pressure equalizing (swallowing/yawning). If the discomfort persists, or you notice discharge, reduced hearing, or increasing pain, it?s important to consult an ENT specialist to check the repaired eardrum and middle ear.

Ear pain that returns after temporary relief can occur if the infection or inflammation has not fully resolved. These treatments may need a little time to work completely. Avoid getting water into the ear, and do not insert anything into it. If the pain recurs or becomes more intense, consult a doctor to review the condition and guide further care.

Reduced hearing in one ear can be due to common causes like Impacted earwax, fluid or infection in the middle ear, or nerve-related issues like Sensorineural hearing loss. Avoid putting anything inside the ear and don?t self-medicate with drops unless advised. If it started suddenly, or is associated with ringing, dizziness, or ear pain, seek medical care urgently; otherwise, consult an ENT specialist for ear examination and a hearing test (audiometry) to find the exact cause and proper treatment.

Ear pain after water entry is often due to early Otitis externa or simple irritation of the ear canal. Keep the ear dry, avoid putting oil or earbuds inside, and you can take a pain reliever like Paracetamol if needed. You may gently tilt your head to let water drain and use a warm compress for comfort. If pain increases, or you notice discharge, swelling, or reduced hearing, consult a doctor as you may need antibiotic ear drops.

A feeling of blockage and discomfort without wax is often due to Eustachian tube dysfunction or mild ear canal inflammation, where pressure doesn?t equalize properly. Try steam inhalation, swallowing/yawning frequently, and gentle pressure-equalizing (like closing your nose and blowing lightly), and if you have cold/allergy symptoms, an antihistamine like Cetirizine may help. Keep the ear dry and avoid inserting anything inside; if the blockage lasts more than a few days, or you develop pain, fever, or hearing loss, consult an ENT specialist for proper evaluation.
