Your ear pain and heaviness are likely due to referred pain from your throat or congestion blocking your Eustachian tubes. To help manage the discomfort, you can take over-the-counter paracetamol or ibuprofen for pain relief and inflammation. Using a saline nasal spray or steam inhalation can ease ear pressure, while warm salt-water gargles will soothe your throat. Since your symptoms have persisted for four days, please consult a doctor. They can examine your throat and ears to determine if you have a bacterial infection that requires prescription antibiotics. Please avoid taking antibiotics without a doctor's prescription.
