ENT Specialist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If you are having pain and discharge from the ear, then you need to consult an ENT surgeon. At first, you should be examined under microscopy. A swab need to be taken from the ear and sent for culture and sensitivity. Start taking Tablet Augmentin instead of Amoxicillin. Start anti-allergic tablet Levocetrizine. Give Ciprofloxacin ear drops to the ear. Don't put water in the ear. Plug the ear with cotton and Vaseline during bathing.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
