What Does A Pimple In Ear Indicate?
Had an ear infection April of 2013 and never felt like it fully healed, still has pressure and fullness plus some itching and drainage. I mentioned to my chiropractor the other day (since he helped to adjust me jaw back when I had the infection and was on antibiotics to help with drainage). She took a look inside my ear with an otoscope and mentioned she saw a little white pimple looking dot deep inside. She recommended I get it checked out. Any idea what this could be?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query yoi have ear infection since two ears and it appears like pimple which is due to formation of pus pocket in ear. I would suggest you to put antiinflammtory ear drops. You should take oral antibiotic along with antihistaminic drug combination. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should go for drainage of pus by otoscopic examination.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
