I have inner ear infection and am in so much pain. i was given a zpack and have taken two dsys but no relief. what can i do?

Revisit your doctor: for a second look, keep taking painkillers, saline nasal washes would help congestion and help opening Eustachian tubes to relieve pressure in the middle ears, some times it a viral infection, hence antibiotics won't work, wish you well
