Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
10 months is a period when an ear infection can be labeled as chronic or long term ear infection. The treatment protocols of chronic ear infection are slightly different as compared to an acute ear infection and pain.
The complain that your ear complains come back after amoxicillin is stopped shows that there is a localized collection of pus near your ear that usually does not get relieved completely with just anti biotic. For that you will have to consult an ENT specialist who will examine to identify if you are have pus collection in the region behind the ear which is called as mastoditis.
Apart from primary ear cause of the pain , there sometimes is problem in the nose like for example deviated nasal septum which can cause repeated ear infections ,therefore treatment for that have to be targeted accordingly. So i would advise you to visit an ENT specialist who would examine you thoroughly and will advise the relevant tests inorder to avoid any more severe complications .
I hope the answer was helpful. In case you need any further assistance feel free to contact us in writing .
