Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Ear

I have had low level ear ache for several years. My hearing is also diminished. When I was a kid I had several ear lances to eliminate infections - this was in the late 1940 s (I am 74 years old). I want an anti-biotic but my doctor won t prescribe it. Can you help?

Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to an ear infection.

I suggest using a cycle of antibiotics.

You should consult your doctor because we cannot prescribe antibiotics online.

I also suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
