Suggest Treatment For Severe Jaw Pain

I have just returned from Mexico from a week holiday. I have been swimming and snorkling daily. I have pain inside my ear as well as pain on the side of my face. My teeth and jaw hurt like a tooth ache. I have had alot of mucus discharge from my nose at first thick yellow then green. it is thick then just like water right after and will run out of my nose like water. 10 hours later it was thick and bloody. I started to use polysporin antibiotic ear drops (24 hours now) sympoms seem to be getting better. Swimmers ear is what we think it may be but realy don't know.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain on the face can be because of the tooth infection, nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole(if you are not allergic).
The discharge from the nose can be because of the respiratory tract infection, you can consult a ENT surgeon.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
