Hello you have probably got pharyngitis infection of the back of throat. Itching in ears occurs due to spread of infection from throat to ears through a tube at the back of ear. You have taken azithro but no improvement means the antibiotics was ineffective you will need to take a broader spectrum of it do consult. Do also warm salt water gargling few times in a day. Do steam inhalation will help with the cough also. Take care.

Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. May be viral pharyngitis. If so, there is no specific treatment for viral pharyngitis. You can relieve symptoms by gargling with warm salt water several times a day (use � teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water). Taking anti-inflammatory drugs or medications, such as acetaminophen, can control symptoms.
