Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood that your problem started with cold and the strep test is negative.
Now that you have got pain in the throat and the ears, it indicates that you still have infection and inflammation in the throat that might be causing referred pain in the ears.
I would advise you the following:
Get a clinical evaluation and examination done by an ENT Surgeon so that a proper diagnosis and treatment can be carried on.
Take soft bland and warm diet.
I think you need a course of an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines till you get cured.,
I find this answer helpful
