Thank you your consult at DoctorSpring.com. I can understand your problem, and will try to help you the best possible.
Let me explain the disease first ->
Your symptoms are;

Ear discharge
So you are having infection of ear, for which you are given correct medication. It is troubling you but it is not a serious condition. All ear infections take some time to improve so you need not to worry about it. You can revisit you ENT consultant once she is available.
If you have severe pain then you can go to ER, but you don’t require CT.
You are given correct antibiotic (amoxy-clav) and ear drops; you can continue same for total 5 days.

For pain and swelling we can start Tab. Paracetamol 1gm three times daily after food.(or any other analgesic you are using regularly).
