Hi,

Ear has no connection with the chest. But it seems that she may be having inflammation of the middle part of ear or Eustachian tube blockage. If the pain is severe then start tablet Augmentin 1 gm after food for 1 week. Take tablet Levocetirizine 5 mg for 1 week. Take proper steam inhalation. If the pain is less then take Nasoclear nose drop 3 drops twice daily and do proper steam inhalation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rajat Basak, ENT Specialist
