Tragus Piercing Complications?

I got my Tragus piercing re-done (had semi closed up) yesterday and temporarily lost my hearing in that ear, woke up in the night with a terrible earache, was wondering if anyone else may have had these complications arise after this piercing, or if they may be unrelated? The area is sore (to be expected) but not infected, and cleansed as instructed with soap and water. Ideas what may have caused this? (When I got the original piercing done 10 years ago I had no issues whatsoever)
