Well I had almost the same thing, no infection just the pain. Turns out I had nerve inflammation in behind my ear. I’ve had nerve block injections with relief for 4 months, going back next week for another one. The Amytriptaline is usually the first line of defence for nerve pain, the next thing they’ll try is either Tegretol or Neurontin, both anti seizure drugs but they do work on nerve pain. Try to see a neurologist and see about a nerve block if that turns out to be the case or you will have trouble flying.
Do not fly in plane the pressure on your ears will be like HELLL trust me it has happened to me .your ear drum could explode from pressure and you can be deaf forever
