yes doc. i have this fungal otitis externa i think. my doctor here just repeatly cleaning my ears with warm water and give me the same ear drop called otopain contain polymyxin B sulfate etc. and he gave me cetirizine to drink. but my ears got the infection almost every month.i had to go to hospital just to get cleaning it and have the same eardrop.please help me
the color of my earwax whe infection hit is yellow and there is some like black white thing. and its always painful and block my ear sometimes if i dont go to hospital quicky.
what's the best way to clean out the ear? have your ENT do it?
Last week the ent took wax out of my left ear and then saw some hair on my ear drum and plucked it out with a tool. It hurt. Now it's all inflamed and another ent looked in and said I have otitis externa and he prescribed neomycin/polymyxin B/Hydrocortisone drops. But I have very tiny canals and if I put these drops in my ear canal, it will clog up, making me very uncomfortable and possibly dizzy. I may just wait and see if it gets better on its own. He said it could, but it could also get worse. No puss. No fever. Not diabetic. I'm 71.
I think I get it from rearing earphones and washing my ears in the shower without drying it. I'm currently using otomize drops (that's probably the wrong name) because it's my 3rd case in the last year and a bit. I guess I'll have to find different types of headphones that let air in and wear plugs in the shower or while swimming
Exact same problem
Use water proof ear plugs if you go swimming
Wow ik ben een volwassen vrouw die nonstop oorontstekingen heeft die standaard altijd behandeld worden met Sofradex .
Het klinkt allemaal zo logisch!! Begrijp alleen totaal niet waarom de huisarts nonstop hetzelfde hetzelfde doet!! Ontzettend bedankt
Becuse they are only GP please beg you see ENT!
Second month and my ear is infected for the third time, completely fed up of it. As i stop taking drugs, it comes again, Ear drum is raptured and black debris is inside which docs are afraid to wash out coz its not coming out by suction. Dont know what to do.
try using Christopher's lobelia extract and garlic oils in the ears to soften and kill the bacteria. Also, eat an anti-inflammatory diet---that pretty much kills all disease
@@meyersonfire thank you for the advise. Lemme try it.
That black thing is mold. Your ent should go back study his field lol my doc used warm water with something in it to clean my ear with that thing
Same problem here
