Ear infection
I've had an ear infection since Monday and I went to a doctor on Tuesday and was prescribed Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium tablets and I've now been on those for four full days and the pain in my ear has only gotten worse. I've taken over the counter pain meds and over the counter ear drops and nothing truly stops the pain or seems to really help. I can't sleep because the pain is so bad.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
What was the over the counter medicines that you used?
Because I'm sure they would have just got it worse.
Consult a ENT specialist in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
