I've had about 7 ear infections

Question

Asked for Female, 16 Years

I have been having a lot of ear infections. I have had about 7 ear infections in the last 2-3 months. I have been using prescribed ear drops and now they have just completely stoped working. I'm in agony and I don't now what to do. I have also discovered a lump behind my ear when I'm having these ear infections. My current ear infection has made the lump very big and that is also so painful. It seems like the doctors can't do anything else and if seems like they don't care. What else can I ask them for?
