Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that you have a lingering ear infection and the pressure inside the ear along with earache is due to pus accumulation inside the ear secondary to infection..
I would suggest you to consult an ENT Expert and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigation like Otoscopy and
x ray can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..
Along with oral antibiotics and painkillers you can also be advised antibiotic and analgesic ear drops..
If needed surgical drainage of ears and placement of pressure equalisation tubes can be done..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
