an ENT should be able to drain the fluid by making a small incision in the ear drum. im not sure what type of dr youll be seeing. a regular primary care dr might not do this and you may need a referral to an ENT.
sometimes a short course of prednisone can help the symptoms and the drainage. you can try asking your dr about this option if they are unable to drain the fluid today.
good luck
