Look, ears are very sensitive parts, so don't do any experiments at home. Just use a warm heating pad on the side of your face for comfort. If the pain doesn't stop, go straight to a doctor instead of putting random things inside.

I get so anxious whenever my ear hurts because I always fear it might be an infection spreading. I just keep my ears covered with a warm scarf and sit upright. Please get it checked by a professional so you don't have to worry.

I suggest using a warm compress for temporary comfort, but please see a doctor if the pain is severe.

Resting your head on a high pillow can ease the pressure in your ear quite a bit. I hope your pain subsides soon, please take rest.

Home remedies for earaches can actually backfire and cause fungal infections inside the damp ear canal. Don't trust online blogs that tell you to drop herbal juices. Get a proper diagnosis from an ENT specialist.

Whenever I get an earache during exam prep, I just take steam inhalation with a blanket over my head. It clears my nose and relieves the ear pressure. But yeah, don't drop anything directly in your ear, that's risky.
