Hello
Please continue your antibiotics and steroids as this will help you.
The ear block and ringing sensation is due to an eustachian tube ( tube between your ear and nose) block and this will come down with the antibiotics!
You can also use saline nasal drops and steam inhalation 3-4 times a day , that will help
Take care!
