The smell is most likely an infection. You need to see an MD. The loss of hearing and pain could signal the rupture of your ear drum. Are you a swimmer? if so, you probably have Otitis Externa (swimmer's ear) If not, it has the hallmarks of an inner ear infection (Otitis Media) with possible ear drum rupture (less likely without bloody discharge)

I have menieres disease, I get alot of fluid stuff like that a lot, however my disease is very rare, chances are yours just need cleaning out, go to the doc as soon as you can get in, going deaf for even short periods of time is no fun, I know all about that, I have them and mine will eventually go permenant. My ears have never really smelled like that so you probably just have wax build up hopefully. Good luck and wish you the best!!
