Sore Ear - forgot to ask the doctor.
I came home from my holiday on Friday with a sore ear which get gradually worse over the weekend - it's now pure agony.
I am of late back from a visit to the doctor and he said my eardrum is totally red and full of pus - he gave me a 7 day course of antibiotics.
Do you cogitate this could have been cause by swimming in the pool at our hotel, which was cleaned every darkness?
Changing my lifestyle, I am now an avid swimmer, so do I need to stay away from swimming (obviously will until ear is better) or is in attendance some form of protection I can use to prevent this happening again - if it was the swimming that cause it?
Answer: you could try plugs. ear nose an throat are connected when my sinus are attacking me i get an ear infection too perchance your infection started in your throat. too much fun had on holiday.
I get the same thing after a holiday within Crete, but I think it was a moment ago wax build up, I used ear drops and it got better.
