Suggest Treatment For Cyst In Ear Canal
I have a Cyst inside my ear canal of my left ear,I went to my doctor yesterday and was prescribed some ear drops (Ofloxacin Otic Solution 0.3%). Today I can still feel the Cyst getting larger and forcing itself on all the walls of my ear canal, Maybe I m just being impatient with the medicine i was prescribed, but the Cyst causes a lot of irritation and i really just want it gone, my question is should i look into having the cyst lanced or stick with the medicine i was given?

Hello
Hope you have visited a ent specialist. If not then go for it. A cyst like thing may be due to many causes which can be ruled by examination only. Donot self medicate.
