my ear is killing me.. please help!!?


Question:
Hey guys my right ear has been getting worse and worse. it started out as occasional pains last week but now it's painful all the time and it feels like there is fluid buildup in it. I get dizziness and nausea sometimes with it as well and when I touch that side of the head it kind of hurts. I talked to my doctor and he said my ear looks fine but thought maybe it was some kind of infection so I took antibiotics and they didn't work. now that I know it's not infection, I'm starting to get really worried it's a brain tumor. what do you guys think? thanks

Answers:
Probably not a brain tumour. Believe it or not, brain tumours rarely cause pain.
You might need a different sort of antibiotic, or perhaps it's a different problem. See your doctor again, or see a new one for a 2nd opinion, telling her/him what antibiotic you already took.
Good luck!

Other Answers:
go to a different doctors. get a second opinion.
it is not a brain tumor. but you need to go see a doctor asap
No! i think it is in faction i think it your ear that made you pain i think, it better you use Antibiotic it is my suggestion.
You sound like you have a middle ear infection. Go to the E.R. if its that bad, and get you some pain meds, and another round of antibiotics. Hope you feel better soon.
get a MRI scan done near your ear (supervised by a suitable doctor) or goto an ENT specialist who can look at your problem. if it is mere fluid build up you could have a fungal infection inside your ear which is accumulating fungi in it..!! take care. and do something ASAP.
Sometimes regular doctors do not see the wax build up deep down in the ear you might need to go to a ear, throat, and nose doc-- they will fix you up
If thy eye offend the, pluck it out!!

OK, enough silliness; go tosee another doctor; GPs usually don't know anything about this - you need to see an ear specialist, or neurologist.
You need to see an ear, nose and throat specialist. Thye are your best bet of finding out what is wrong.
I bet it is a toothache! Sometimes your brain can't determine exactly what is wrong so it just hurts where it thinks it is. (Do you follow me?) Go to the dentist, (or call the dentist.) and tell them I had this same problem. I had an abcess in my gum, and if I hadn't have went when I did, then the poison that had built up, would have killed me.
hey i dont know much but it must probably be ear wa.When earwax builds up inside there usually will be pain, nausea and dizzines.The pain might only be momentary.You feel as if drugged.I had this problem a few weeks back and i consulted an ENT and he cleared out my ears.Now i can hear well and there is no pain.The best thing is go and consult an ENT.See a different doctor this time who has a real MBBS.And i dnt think you wld have to take any antibiotics.See a doctor and get his advcie.

Ths is what i think and from the proffessionals read below;
The symptoms of a wax plug within the ear can include:

Mild deafness
Earache
A sensation of fullness inside the ear
Tinnitus (ringing in the ear)
Dizziness.
Diagnosis and treatment options
Your doctor diagnoses the condition by looking into the ear canal with an instrument called an otoscope. Treatment options may include:
Drops to soften the ear wax and help it to fall out on its own.
The use of an ear syringe to squirt warm water into the ear canal and float out the wax plug.
Withdrawal of the wax using a suction device.
Removing the wax with forceps or a special hook.
Large quantities of hardened wax may need to be treated by an ear specialist.
