Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you symptoms of fever, cold and discomfort ear which is due to leftover upper respiratory tract infection occur due to bacterial as well as viral infection and it spread to ear leading to eustachian tube dysfunction. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper checkup. Doctor may order certain test to confirm the diagnosis like blood test, throat swab test and do otoscopic examination as well. You should start treatment after complete examination. Avoid touching or pricking ear. You should avoid taking outside food. You should avoid cold carbonated beverages. You should take proper course of antiviral/ antibacterial medication along with antiinflammatory medication.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
