Noticing Excess Ear War And Possibility Of An Infection
I have had excessive ear wax, had it's cleaned out, also have reccouring ear infections, probably 7 over a 4 week period...tried antibiotics ...and now trying a antibitocic panotile, without much improvement...just wondering what can keep causing the infection...

Hello
It is likely that the microbes causing your infection are resistant to the antibiotic or you maybe having a fungal infection rather than a bacterial one, so that the antibiotics are not working!
Please meet your ent doctor, he will examine you and clean the ear and advice you further,
Thanks
