Brief Answer:
Make sure the ear its not blocked
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your question.
I read it carefully and I understand your concern.
It seems like you are taking everything that covers the symptoms and the infection that you might have (antibiotics).
One other thing I would suggest its to have someone look at your ear (if you haven't done this already) because the blockage that you feel may be from impacted wax,and you may need an ear lavage.
The rest needs its time to heal, just take those medicines regularly for the time being.
Drink plenty of fluids, teas, vit C in forms of fruits, honey helps with the sore throat, gargles with salt, stay warm at home if possible.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Otherwise please kindly close and rate the answer.
Regards,
Dr.Papaqako
