My ears still hurt after 3 days of being on antibiotics. my ears are really full, how can i drain my ears without irrigating them?

Need doc: If there is a lot of fluid build up behind the ear drum this will cause pain, it can not be treated by irrigating the ear, sometimes a physician will drain the fluid you should speak with your doctor.
