Grommets In Ear T Ones, Fallen Out, Earache. What Do I Do?
hello my partner has has grommets in his ear T ones which have both know fallen out, this has caused him to have very bad earache and dizziness his doctor has informed him he has to see a consultant but he has to wait for the appointment, the earache or infection is know getting worse as is the dizziness and lack of sleep, He does not work and can not afford a private consultant what can he do to see one urgently? Painkillers do not help.
hello, there could be infection in the ears. First of all advice him NOT TO BLOW HIS NOSE. AVOID WATER ENTERING INTO THE EARS LIKE BY SWIMMING OR TAKING BATH. Then you can take antibiotics , ORAL DECONGESTANT tablets- like pseudoephedrine/ phenylephrine , nasal decongestant drops like xylometazoline. Pain killer and anti inflammatory like voveron or ibuprofen Get ENT consultation that would be better as proper examination can be done. Take steam inhalations. avoid air travel.
