Left ear clogged &hurt more than a week

Question

Asked for Male, 33 Years

Hi, my left ear is clogged and in pain from over a week now. I'm on day 3 of these medications - Antibiotic(amoxicillin) ear drop(dexamethasone), nasal spray( oxymetazoline) - nothing worked. Today I found out when I lie on the left side, ear pain and blockage get better. GP checked my ear and said everything's look good. I have no other symptoms. I will really appreciate if anyone can tell me how so I get out of this problem.
