Yes, you can put a little olive oil (or mineral, frankly) on a piece of cotton in your ear. It'll help distribute the heat.
I'll check in here for a bit, Aims. Or you have my cell (I'll turn my ringer on) if you need to call tonight.
But warmth and some rest (while the pressure is hopefully relieving) are the best things.
