Continuous Ear Ache, Diagnosed As Glue Ear, Worsened After Taking Sudafed, Ibuprofen. What Can Be Done?
I have had earache for about 3 weeks now, it started in my right ear and I went to the doctor and she said I had something called glue ear and gave me Nasonex ... I am now having the problem in both ears and it seems to be getting worse. I am using the nose spray taking Sudafed and Ibprofen.. I don t know what else to do.

Hello
It is unlikely that you may be having glue ear since glue er generally causes mild deafness and not pain. The pain maybe due to an infection and you may need antibiotics for it, i would like you to meet your ent doctor again for examination and advice.
Thanks
