Antibiotics not working?

I went to the doctor a week ago with a sore throat, cough with thick mucus, swollen lymph nodes, body aches, and 100 fever. The doctor gave me penicillin, 10 days worth. I am on day 7 of antibiotics. My sore throat went away but I now have a clogged ear that I cannot hear out of and swollen goopy eyes and the cough with mucus is still there and congestion. I am not feeling better. What do I do?

Hello,

You still have many symptoms that haven't resolved and may require other prescribed medications. Recommend seeing an ENT Specialist as you need a good ear exam.
