Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

That could be because of say conditions like otitis media. Otitis media is infection of the middle ear. It can happen in individuals with nose infection. Examination by your doctor is required to confirm the diagnosis. Your doctor will prescribe antibiotics which will help to control the infection after confirming the diagnosis. Antipyretics will help to provide symptomatic relief. So consult your doctor for the same.

Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
