What Is Causing Pricking Pain In The Ear?

Hi!
I have pricking pain in the ear from five days. It doesn't bother me much because it is from time to time - about 20 times daily. I though I will develop cold/ flu, but I did not, no runny nose, no temperature, only slight pain in the throat and tenderness in the half of the face. But I am generally well. During this period i have taken 4 times paracetamol, for more comfort. Do I need antibiotics/ doctor?THANK you!
