Defintely go to the ER, it's not worth waiting until tomorrow and taking a chance on damaging or losing your hearing.

Put a damp bathcloth into a cup and heat it in the microwave for about 45 seconds. Set your head down so the troublesome ear is over the cup and seal it downward.
The warmth should offer you some relief. Back off if it's too hot.

My sister used to have really bad ear problems when she was little and one of the things that was suggested for her was warm, moist wash cloths on the ear. She used to lay with her ear on top of it, but if it hurts to lay on your ear, it would probably work to just lay the wash cloth on top. Make sure it's not too hot though.
