Hi there, by your clinical symptoms, you are suffering from recurrent laryngitis associated with Eustachian tube infection which is reflected as recurrent ear infections. It is not an emergency but it is a case of urgency. I advise you to take consultation with ENT surgeon for proper treatment. Hope my advice is helpful to you. Take care.
