Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related a cold or flu.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.
I also suggest using an antibiotic eardrop for local application.
I recommend to gargle with salty water and drink liquids.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
