Hey doctor, I am having really bad ear pains and it s been hurting off and in for a couple weeks now. Today is the worst it s been and I can slightly hear out of it right now. I have tried putting peroxide and a cotton ball in it and I even took some Advil but nothing s working even if I just lay down. Please help
Hi, thanks for your query. In my opinion, you might be having infection of your middle ear. This can be treated with penicillin antibiotics + anti inflammatory medicines like paracetamol + diclofenac combination drugs twice daily for 3 to 5 days. treat your cold with antihistamines if you have. All these are prescription medicines, so I would advise you to consult with the doctor and get evaluated properly. Empirically you can take anti inflammatory medicines like paracetamol + diclofenac combination drugs which are available over the counter. hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
