Change pain killer: Ear pain can be very severe. If what u r taking is not helping have the pain killer changed to something that may be more effective. Call the doctor who saw you. Antibiotics do take 24-48 hours to work at times and that may also need to be changed if not helping. Have urself re evaluated within 24-48 hours if medications not helping.
