May need Dr visit: Ear pain can be from increased pressure which can sometimes be helped by decongestants plus antihistamines or guaifenesin, plus acetaminophen for pain. If that doesn’t help you likely will need a Dr exam. Some of the symptoms could be from allergies: antihistamines usually help those symptoms
