HI
ITS DR GUPTA
AS FOR AS THE DISEASE WHICH CAN I GUESS WITH YOUR HISTORY IS
1. OTTITIS EXTERNA ( INFLAMMATION OF EXTERNAL EAR) WITH CERVICAL LYMPHADENOPATHY
2. PAROTITIS
TREATMENT :
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUG ( PARACETMOL ORALLY)
ANTIBIOTIC ( AMOXY -CLAV) TO CONTROL INFECTION .
PLENTY OF FLUID
LOCAL THERAPY IF OTTITIS EXTERNA IS PRESENT - OTOGESIC EAR DROP THIS WILL REDUCE PAIN SENSATION
WHAT I THINK THIS WILL HELP YOU
