What Does Sudden Severe Pain In Ear With Flu Symptoms And Fever Suggest?

My boyfriend is screaming in pain suddenly from his ear hurting after flu symptoms and a constant fever that wont break. The flu symptoms have occured for a few days, the ear pain just started suddenly about two hours ago and he is never been like this, screaming like he is a woman in labor, os it possible that coughing or blowing hia nose could have busted his ear drum? Bc he went to er today, for the fever, before the ear pain, and they checked his ears then and said he had no ear infection
