My grandmother used to put olive oil in mine for about 10 minutes.  Then it would feel better.  Not sure what that does.

if that is all there is, then wait.  likely it will resolve itself.  if you start having dizzy feelings, or strong pain, then see a doctor.  peroxide will not hurt your ear, and can help an infection, but i wouldn't depend on it alone.  a doctor might prescribe liquid antibiotic for your ear.
