I had a cold and my ears have been seriously affected, what should I do?

3 weeks ago I had a cold and one night I woke up in extreme pain in my left ear, ever since it's been blocked. I know all the medical reasons as to why it's blocked but I can't seem to unblock it. I went to the hospital to see professional help and they just gave me antibiotics and said I have sinusitis. I feel like the antibiotics have made it worse. My right ear became blocked too but thankfully it got unblocked as that ear seems to be popping fine but it's gotten to a stage where a simple swallow makes my right ear pop and whenever I only begin to breathe out my nose whilst pinching it shut, my right ear constantly pops like crazy for 10 seconds and when I stop it pops again constantly for a short time. It's gotten to a stage where the pops are actually painful and I'm afraid it's going to affect my hearing. My left ear is in a constant state of being just blocked and feeling intense pressure and pain as well but bearable pain very odd to describe. The left ear pops maybe once or twice a day but it doesn't feel like the ear opens up at all. I'm very concerned about my situation and I would like to see if anyone has any ideas.
