Hi dear ,

As per your query you have tonsillitis , sore throat along with fever and ear infection . Sometimes upper respiratory track infection when left untreated cause tonsillitis and ear infection , which spread through eustachian tube . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper diagnosis . Doctor may order test like throat swab test , and culture test , also doctor will examine ear with otoscope . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics ( penicillin or amoxicillin ) at least for a week along with decongestants and mucolytic agent . For now do betadine gargles and give dry warm compresses to external ear . It is very important to keep your ear dry .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
