I was cleaning my ears this morning and i guess i may have turned the qtip in an angle or went to far and now the bottom interieur of my ear hurts .. should i see a doctor if the pain continues after tomorrow ... is it safe to go swimming when you have ear pain following an incident like this ?

Hi ,As per your clinical history it appears as you are having some trauma to ear canal.
Start Ciplox D ear drop.
Stop cleaning ear with Q tip. Donot allow water to go inside the ear while bath also , avoid swimming till it heal.
Keep ear dry.
Hope above information helpful to you.
If you donot get relief , ENT examination become essential.
