Hi dear ,

As per your query you have ear infection and rinning in your ear also known as tinnitus . Well the probable reason for tinnitus is ear infection and it will get better as the treatment of ear infection proceed . There can be other reasons also for tinnitus like stress and anxiety , localize alteration in the blood pressure , hearing loss and certain medicines like antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs . So i would suggest you to give dry warm compresses to external ear before going to bed , try to keep yourself relax and stop taking antibiotics and anti inflammatory after you ear infection go away . If condition still persist then consult ENT specialist again for proper diagnosis . Doctor may prescribemedicine like eprisone and suppliment like ginkgo biloba . Doctor may also recommend tinnitus retraining therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
