Hi, thanks for the query.
After reading your query , it appears that your baby having middle ear infection with rupture ear drum ( ASOM ). It is common in baby after cold/cough & wrong method of breastfeeding.
I will suggest you to please consult your ENT doctor because here clinical examination is very important to diagnose the real fact and accordingly treatment may be planed.
