You need to check you dont have an infection,inner or outer one,or is it coming from tooth or jaw?Ive spent ages at dentist making sure it wasnt.I find heat or my partner rubbing around ear around works with pain

I have had ear pain for months and didn't find out that it was related to migraines. What will help with the ear pain?

Don't have a clue. Do you have ear problems to begin with?
