Otalgia is defined as ear pain. Two separate and distinct types of otalgia exist. Pain that originates within the ear is primary otalgia; pain that originates outside the ear is referred otalgia. [1, 2] Typical sources of primary otalgia are external otitis, otitis media, mastoiditis, and auricular infections.
Tinnitus is when you experience ringing or other noises in one or both of your ears. The noise you hear when you have tinnitus isn't caused by an external sound, and other people usually can't hear it. Tinnitus is a common problem. It affects about 15% to 20% of people, and is especially common in older adults.
The sensation of aural fullness (“stuffy ears” or “fluid in the ears”) is one of the most common reasons that bring adult patients in to the ENT office for evaluation. Patients may have been told that they have fluid in their ears.
It is not that the ear pain does not exist in referred otalgia, it is that the pain is not coming from the ear. For example, if an adult presents with bilateral ear pain, this is rarely due to bilateral ear infections and usually is a form of referred otalgia.

Otitis media with effusion (OME) is a collection of non-infected fluid in the middle ear space. It is also called serous or secretory otitis media (SOM). This fluid may accumulate in the middle ear as a result of a cold, sore throat or upper respiratory infection.
