Severe ear pain

2020-08-23 05:23:14
Since last two days I have got severe ear ache. My right side face is swollen and I can't open my mouth or chew. Around a month back water got inside my ear, post that outer ear was itchy and flaky. Two days back I felt cold and could feel my right side especially tonsil glands n ear was painful. I am taking decongestant and painkiller. But the pain starts once the effect of medicine subsided.
