I have recently started having sever sharp shooting pains in my right ear. It comes and goes, but occurs atleast 1-2 times a day. The length of the episodes very from a minute to several minutes. The pain seems to be getting worse as the days go by. I had an absest tooth once and experiaced some ear pain with that, but I had that tooth pulled about 6 months ago. My remaining teeth I belive are ok, so I don't feel that the ear pain is related to dental problems a before. Please advise on what I should do.
