Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

As you had upper respiratory tract infection which was followed by ear infection for which your doctor has advised an azithromycin antibiotic which is an excellent medication against these symptoms.

The symptoms will improve in few days. In addition to this I would suggest you to follow

1.Prevent entry of water into ears.
2.Continue the same antibiotic.
3.Oral NSAIDs like Tab Ibuprofen, will help to reduce the pain and inflammation.
4. I would suggest you to consult ENT surgeon for Otoscopy examination.

Thank you.
