Hi,

You are suffering from upper respiratory Tract infection and you should have taken antibiotic course and and some antihistamines. Regarding the ear pain, as per your symptoms it seems you have blocked right Eustachian tube due to throat infection.

I'll advise you to consult your local doctor and take necessary medication and you will be out of disease.

Wish for good health.
