Can i wait till monday for my ear infection to se my regular doctor or do i need to go to an urgent care immediately. for now the pain is bearable.

Ear infection: If the pain is tolerable you can wait until the office opens on Monday. Using a heating pad over the ear can sometimes help soothe the pain. Taking NSAIDs like advil (ibuprofen) or motrin will help dull the pain a bit too. If the pain becomes unbearable then go get it seen.
