Ear pain along with swelling

2024-07-23 00:30:55
I used the ear cleaning buds bit harshly due to which my left ear is swollen and paining a lot right now. I m taking few medicines but it's hurting more in the night so what should I do to reduce the swelling and pain. Medicines I am taking right now are Augmentin, Enzoflam and Citrizine along with an ear drop. What should I do to reduce the swelling and cure it soon and I can't sleep as well
