You seem to be suffering from acute otitis media which is a common type of middle ear infection. Pus may need to be sent for culture and sensitivity and antibiotic needs to be started according to the report
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
