Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
There is a connection between upper respiratory tract and the ear, the infection can easily spread in either direction.
That's why you are having these symptoms, as you are on antibiotics it will improve the condition.
In addition to this you have to do remedies like
salt water gargling, Breathing exercises, oral antihistamines. with this your symptoms will improve if it is persisting after 7 days of antibiotic course , then we have to suspect other conditions.
Thank you.
