Both Sarah and MM1 have the right answer. The point is to apply a little bit of heat so that the muscle relaxes. If you don't have any olive oil you can use any vegetable oil too. Just warm it up slightly and dip a cotton roll in it to soak the oil in and then drop some of the oil using the cotton roll into your ear that is hurting. Stay laying down with that ear up for sometime. The pain will subside. You can also, as Sarah suggested, put a bag of hot water on that ear. Heat dissipates the pain. The oil is a better suggestion because the internal heat will kill the bacteria that might be causing the pain. Good Luck!!

Get someone to light a cigar and gently blow the smoke into your ear. Do that a couple of times, then lie that side down with your ear on a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel. Try to sleep through it if you can.

well draw cirlcles around your eyes with your fingers and try to yawn and try relaxing in a comfortable chair or a bubble bath and think you are in a sunny beach and try to hear them in your head or remember the happiest time you've ever had
