Hello,
We don't know whether it is external or middle ear infection until the examination. Use tablet amoxicillin clavulanate thrice a day for five days. Please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
