Please come down and meet me. I will not prescribe anything irresponsibly here as some of my colleagues as you need a proper ENT examination and clinical assessment before I can suggest the line of treatment.

Antibiotics take few days to start effect, expecting an instant response is wrong idea. From your history it is unclear how long you have taken these medications. Please continue for 5 days at least and then review consultation.
