[Everything doTERRA] oregano for ear pain

So, in the middle of the night, last night, my 10 year old woke me up, crying with ear pain.  He was clearly in a lot of pain.  This is nothing new, as every year about this time, his allergies add up to a sinus and ear infection.  We take him to the doctor for an antibiotic, etc.  Well, this time I was so excited to try the oils approach.  I put a little Oregano on a cotton ball and put it in his ear.  Then I rubbed Balance on his forehead and Peppermint all down his neck and throat area to help with the pain.  I went back to bed, but apparently, he still had a hard time sleeping because of the pain.  He did finally fall asleep and then awoke today around noon.  He looked a little better and said the pain inside his ear was gone.  However, he said his actual ear lobe hurt.  I looked closer, and the bottom of his lobe, the part closest to the opening of the ear, is swollen up quite a bit with a dark red scab on top of it.  Did I burn him with the Oregano?  Did I do it wrong?  I was so tired, I may have remembered incorrectly, in the middle of the night how to treat ear pain.  I rubbed some serenity and balance on it and then gave him the aromatouch therapy, this afternoon, as well as rubbing oregano on his feet.  Overall, he is looking better, so I know that the oils are working, I just wasn't sure if the swollen lobe was normal?
