Understanding Ear Pain
Ear pain, also known as otalgia, can originate from various sources, including the ear itself, nearby structures, or referred pain from other areas of the body. It can be sharp, dull, or throbbing and may be accompanied by other symptoms such as hearing loss or ear discharge.
Causes of Ear Pain
Ear pain can result from different causes, including:
- Ear Infections: Infections of the outer ear (otitis externa), middle ear (otitis media), or inner ear (vestibular neuritis) can lead to ear pain.
- Earwax Blockage: Buildup of earwax can cause discomfort and ear pain.
- Injury or Trauma: Injuries to the ear or head can lead to ear pain.
- Sinus Infections: Sinusitis can cause referred pain to the ears.
- Dental Issues: Dental problems, such as toothaches or jaw disorders, can cause referred ear pain.
