Hello
It seems from the history that you are having swollen gland on right side of face associated with ear pain.
This is probably because of ear infection and swollen gland indicates swollen lymphnodes secondary to infection.
You have been prescribed Tab. Crefdiner, which is a antibiotic and it has to be taken for 5 days. The infection takes about 4-6 days to respond. Along with the above mentioned tablet you need oral analgesic for pain relief.
Thank you
