Hi welcome to health care magic....
According to history your doctor right it seems only viral infection....
For impacted wax debrox like ear drop can be prescribed....
From viral inflammation, you are having reactive lymph node enlargement....
You can take decongestant drug like levocetrizine.
Paracetamol for headache can be taken...
Lozenges like strepsil can be taken...
CBC should be done.. If high count more than 12000 and neutrophila than antibiotic might needed
Take one tap ginger juice with honey daily
Take care
Advise : physician consultation for examination and further work up
