Getting ears and teeth infected all of a sudden

Hi. I'm just wondering if anybody here have experienced this like me. Just last Sept. 14 my ENT informed me that I had ear infections he prescribed me with ear drops and some antibiotics(good for 1 week 2x a day) and pain reliever(I just had one for the entire week). When I went back to him after 6 days, I was cleared. So happy. But then after that I started to have toothache after that. Severe toothache on my wisdom tooth that I endured for 3 days until I gave up and went to see a dentist last Friday Sept. 30. My third molar/wisdom tooth was cracked. It needed to be taken out or it would be too late bec sooner it later I wouldn't be able to open my mouth wide for the procedure. So for more than an hour I was their struggling in pain. The dentist got me 4 anesthesia shots because it won't kick in and would go out because there's a bit of pus(i don't know if thats the term but we call it nana here in my country) already and it was already infected. I even bent 2 injections, I feel so bad. But angway, the struggle was real. So, right now, I'm still on meds. Some amoxicillin and mefenamic acid 3x a day for a week. I'm just wondering why I've been having these infections. I'm quite alarmed because I dont get sick much. Worst sickness for me would be having cough and i dont usually get fever too. just last Sept.9 I went through a whole pre employment medical exam and I passed everything there. So i find it really weird on why I've been getting sick lately. Is this normal? Do i need to do any medical exam again?
