Hi. I had a right ear infection two weeks ago. I consulted a doctor and he gave me clear wax which i used for  a week. It got better then i stopped the medication. Now it seems to have gotten worse. My ear hurts, cheek is swollen a little and my tongue also hurts on the right side. Please suggest what should i do. At a time like this going to a hospital is questionable. Is there anything i can do or should i definitely go to a local doctor?
