You might be suffering from acute otitis media which is a common type of middle ear infection. You may need to take antibiotics and painkillers for few days. Ear drops are usually not very helpful.
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required. Meanwhile you can continue using over the counter analgesics
