Anyways something happened to my left ear the other day. So here's how it went down, I worked in the cold rain all day one day, next day I sparred with boxing equipment with a buddy, got knocked in the head a few times. So I had this headache/earache, I'm pretty sure the headache came from the boxing and I'm not worried about that cause it's gone pretty much. The earache might be connected to the boxing but I think it might've been from the rain and this cold I seem to have developed.
Anyways while I was working out on the bench doing my normal weight at ten reps on the 9th one I felt my ear kinda hurting then when I did the 10th I heard this sudden pop in my left ear and there was a sharp pain that slowly diluded down to a less sharp but still heavy throbbing pain. I fell asleep and was fine the next day, my ear felt a little funny. So I hit the bench again and the pain builds up really rapidly if I'm even just benching light weight, it gets to a very uncomfortable level.
I've been doing curls and situps and pullups and pushups and just about everything else. If I do a whole lot of any one of these I can sense the pain coming back, but usually I'm worn out before it starts hurting real bad. Yet if I try to hit the bench an almost any way it comes back a whole lot quicker.
So my thought were it must be related to the blood pressure or flow or something, and that laying down like that must affect gravity and whatnot and the pain stems from that. What I don't know is what it really is, ruptured eardrum, popped blood vessel, I just don't know really. It's been going on for about 2 days, I can still hear just as good so I don't think my eardrum could've been damaged. It becomes a heavy throbbing that I can kind of feel behind my left eye too if it gets bad. When I rest for a few minutes it subsides. I'm just hoping it goes away in a few more days if not I'll see a doctor I guess.
Anyways I was wondering if anyone here had any idea of what it could be or maybe even prior experience. Because this is really messing with my workouts and it's just that one ear that this immense pain seems to be constricted to. One of you has to be a doctor. Any thoughts are appreciated.
