is my condition being sick worsening?

I started out with an ear infection inside my right ear which after proper medical attention was taken care of i stopped my drops before the recommened timing that the doc gave me. My condition felt 100%better!! a week later i went to the beach and a second ear infection developed inside my left ear and they were both were otis externa aka swimmer's ear this time i waited it off a bit expecting the ear infection to go away on it's own. i avoided all water contact from there and my condition worsened severly to where i couldn't sleep just like the first one. Finally the day i couldn't take it any more i got medical attention to the closest medical urgent care avaidable. They told me they couldn't even see if it was infected becasue of all the ear wax which i had been trying to clear out! It was bad they then tried to flush my ear which resulted in the most terrific pain ive ever felt. They perscribed more drops but said they would have little effect but i think better to try than not!!! So then my condition started to feel better i could feel that the drops slowly entering but not quickly. I also had a fever of 100.8 at the same time. My lower back started to hurt and they said just take paid medication. My body became weaker and weaker and my fever felt as if it was going on and off. I feel a new ear infection occuring in both ears but decreasing in the left. (the second time) I don't know what to do rest doesn't seem to help me!!! I can't breathe in deeply either or i cough.

Update:

The cough doesn't seem to go away and i can't breathe deeply or i cough badly. I feel like while i was typing this my body slowly falls backwards and i pick myself up and keep typing please help me! what is wrong with me!!?

Update 2:

i am also continuing drops in both ears so maybe that will help they contain antibiotics.

    Continue the drops but you might want to tell the doctor about the breathing problem, sounds a little like asthma.
