Suggest Remedy For Spots In Ear Drum

After having an ear infection and taking 10 days of antibiotics i returned for a check up. The doctor said that ther ewas two small blood like spots on my ear drum. I have slight hearing loss (everything sounds muffeled). The doctor prescribed claritin for the remaining light drainage and said that the spots should heal naturaly. I am a professional musician and concerned that there may be long term effects to my hearing.

Nothing to worry. Some forms of mycoplasma or bacterial infection leads blister/bloody spot over ear drum. It usually heals leaving small scar tissue with no significant hearing loss. After 3 months of ur infection do audiometry to find amount of hearing loss and u have to treat accordingly.
