Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having impacted wax in your ear giving this problem.
If this problem was due to infection, by this time with antibiotics it might have become alright.
Put wax dissolving ear drops like waxolve for few days and then get it cleared with cotton buds.
If problem persisted, then consult ENT specialist for further examination.
Ok and take care.
