I would try bathing it with boiled & cooled salted water, and try and see if you can see what's caused it. It could be a scartch, an insect bite, something lodged in his ear. Just try gently pulling the flap open And see if you can spot anything without going inside. Failing that, you'll have to hold him somehow & try bathing the outer ear.

I don't suppose you have any Piriton? If it's an allergic reaction to a bite or sting, Piriton would help to reduce the swelling.

no ut do they sell it in supermarkets

I think so, especially if they have a pharmacy - it's just an anti-histamine, used by hay fever sufferers.

If you can't get to clean it, and if Piriton doesn't help, then I'd pop to the vets in the morning.

you can get piriton from asda or tesco
