Hello,
Thanks for trusting healthcaremagic!
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
Ear ache is common in acute sinusitis and there is nothing serious and it will subside with in a week.When you have sinusitis or throat infection there will be pressure changes is your ear which will cause severe ear ache.
I suggest you to consult an ENT physician and get the following things done:
1.You can take simple analgesics like "acetminophen" or "ibuprofen" for pain.
2.A short course antibiotics like "amoxicillin' or "levofloxacin" for five to seven days to clear the infection.
3.Antihistamines like "levecetrezine" would provide symptomatic relief.
4.Use nasal decongestants like "xylometazolne" in case of blocked nostrils.
5.You can try steam inhalation twice day,It would be very helpful in reducing the symptoms.
If the pain is intolerable you can use lignocaine containing ear drops.
If the symptoms persist despite all these you need detailed ENT examination and sometimes a CT scan to rule out other diseases.

Hope I have answered your query.
Wishing you good health.

Regards.
Dr.Shinas
