Hello Mr. Saravanan,
You seem to be having a upper respiratory tract infection. You should take antibiotics for atleast 5 days, and it would be better if you take some anti-inflammatory like paracetamol (crocin) upto thrice daily for 2-3 days. Besides medications, you need to take adequate rest and plenty of liquids in diet. Ear pain is usually related to throat only. Warm saline gargles and plain steam thrice daily would be an important thing to do, and would provide immediate relief.
Besides that, revisiting your physician is always a wiser option.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
