What Is The Treatment For Ear Ache And Dizziness?
I hit the top of my head on the 25th and the eveing of the 27th, I developed an ear ache. Dr said no infection, but prescribed antibiotics. No fever, no discomfort moving jaw but area in front of ear/jaw painful, causing headaches, dizziness, and very tired. No difference with antibiotics. Tylenol helps pain but not anitinflamitories.
