Hi, I'm 20 years old and experiencing severely sharp pain in my ear that travels down to my neck and across my face. I can't hear in that ear either. This began about 6 days ago after getting a thorough ear cleaning from my ENT. I went to the emergency room 2 nights ago and the doctor there could not treat me. Although he did give me ear drops, mucinex D, amoxycillin and pain medicine. None of it has helped at all. Is there any home remedy to help alleviate the pain until I can go back to my ENT tomorrow? Do I have an ear infection and was it caused by the deep cleaning?
about your question i would like to tell you that these symptoms you mentioned refer mainly to have ear infection bacterial that cause consequences of ear pain and treatment will be simple.....your feeling of these symptoms should not make you worry as it is common symptom of common cold or bacterial infection of your ear
you can take tylenol or ibubrufen as it will help alot to improve .......you should also drink alot of warm fluids that will make you better ...... you should also have bed rest and no severe excercise that cause you be tired some times you should do blood test for investigation if symptoms get worse but now you not need that......
because bacterial infection suggested you should administer amoxicillin&clavulinic acid or erythromycin as it is antibiotic has great role in treatment ear infection
wish you healthy life
