Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of inner ear infection which could be due to accumulation of wax and infection in ear. Sometimes fluid accumulation behind the eardrum may reduced hearing tendency. I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated. You should maintain proper hygiene. Put otogesic ear drops in ear. For infection in ear oral antibiotics as well as antibiotic ear drops and decongestant nasal sprays can help. Apply warm compresses to external ear. You should get it checked and go for otoscopic examination as it is important. You can go for drainage of fluids as well.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
