Suggest Medication For Ear Infection And Bronchitis

I went to Dr. Friday and was told I have ear infection and bronchitis. Taking a prescribed antibiotic, I am still experiencing clogged left ear and ringing. Driving me crazy. No more pain. The ear did open on Saturday, but closed again Sunday and today. Do I need to go back to the dr?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Antibiotics given would certainly take care of infection of your ear and lungs. It would take about a week to ten days to completely resolve. Kindly complete the course of antibiotics as advised.
You can do the following supportive measures to get better of other symptoms.
1. Do salt water gargling with warm water thrice daily.
2. Take steam inhalation thrice daily.
3. Take tablet containing antihistamine with decongestant when necessary.

Gradually, you should be able to overcome it.
Hope the information provided helps.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.
