I AM HAVING AWFUL PAIN IN THE OUTER EAR, AROUND

I AM HAVING AWFUL PAIN IN THE OUTER EAR, AROUND THE TRIANGULAR FOSSA AREA. IT FEELS LIKE IT IS ON FIRE AND I MAYBE FEEL MY HEART BEAT THERE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER FELT ANYTHING LIKE THIS. THERE ISN'T A MARK THERE LIKE AN INSECT BITE OR ANYTHING. IT FEELS LIKE I KEEP GETTING STUCK WITH A PIN IN THAT ONE SPOT.
