Is it possible to have an ear infection and congestion at the same time?

Ok, long story. Got Earache around Christmas. Dr couldn't see anything but wax so had to have them syringed- had to wait 2 weeks. Had left ear syringed (right ear was clear). Advised to take inflammatory painkillers for 2 weeks and go back if no better. I did and the Dr couldn't see anything so sent me for blood tests which showed an infection. Gave me penicillin for 1 week. I've been taking it for 5 days, feel better in myself but still got earache. A few years ago i had mystery ear pain, and my Dr at the time gave me a nasal spray as last resort which worked. So should I get a nasal spray this time just in case?
