How should i treat Ear fungus &inflammation if i started taking antibiotics

Hello, I am a 27 year old woman, I have fungus, bacteria and an infection in my ear.
I feel there is alot of pressure in my ear like its full. I'm also experiencing pain.
I started taking antibiotics (Tobradex and Ciprobay)  but my condition is getting worse. Should i have treated the fungus first? if so what should i do now?

Hello~Some ear infections are due to food allergies, are you aware of any allergies to foods? Also, you could have Candida, this is a type of yeast infection that can cause infections and fungus in the ears. I would go back to your doctor, tell him/her what is going on, and ask to be tested for these issues.

To treat a fungus, take a good, high potency pro-biotic, this will help to put the friendly bacteria in your gut.
