Back from holiday yesterday after getting what's now been diagnosed as swimmers ear, symptoms came on on Saturday afternoon whilst away...

Needless to say the two flights yesterday weren't pleasant and after a GP visit yesterday afternoon i'm now £8 lighter and have some drops.... However the drops don't seem to be working, the ear is throbbing and discharging fluid whilst giving headaches and hurting when chewing etc. Any way to speed this up as it is very hard to sleep (can't lye on it) and doesn't seem to be getting better, rather the opposite!

How do I go about clearing this up quicker?
