Oof, that sounds horribly painful and exhausting! But if the pain is mostly from inflammation/ swelling, you can try self lymphatic drainage. I used this routine after a jaw surgery where they took out some lymph nodes and I had swelling up the side of my head. It's temporary relief, but that's meaningful, especially to fall asleep. You can also do it several times a day. You shouldn't do it if you have an active infection but it sounds like you've finished your course of antibiotics so you should be all set! I hope you find it helpful as I did
