Brief Answer:
You are having URTI with refer ear pain.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXX ,
Thanks for the query.

As per your clinical history it appears that you are having upper respiratory track infection more on right side & refer pain to ear .

If I were your treating doctor, I would advice you Antiseptic chlorhexidine Mouth Wash , Steam inhalation twice daily , paracetamol & Vitamin C .

Certainly above treatment will give you much relief but if relief is not upto satisfaction level then consultation with your ENT doctor will become essential.

Hope this information helpful to you .If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
Regards.
