Hello and welcome to lybrate, as per your concern, I do not think that fruit worm has anything to do with ear ache. The things we eat goes to our stomach and get digested by acid. Worms in the ear are generally due to maggots and does not go into the ear by eating. But ear ache might be due to local cause, systemic cause and also referred pain from tooth, tonsil, sinus etc. So please get checked by a local ent surgeon. Thanks.
