Could Ear Pain Caused By Sinus Issues Be Treated With Ear Drops?

My right ear hurts really bad. I got a cotton swab stuck in it earlier in the day but got it all out. thinking it was sinus i took a pill it didnt help. it hurts so bad that I cant lay on it or put a blanket on it or go to sleep. I wont try heat because it hurts so bad. is there any thing I can do? will ear drops help or make it worse?
