Suggest Treatment For Severe Ear Infection
I have a severe ear infection and have been on antibiotics (amoxicillin) for two days with no improvement. The swelling and pain is worse. I can t close or open my jaw all the way anymore. Should I go back to the doctor, or should I continue the antibiotics and wait it out a bit longer?
