Outer ear infection accompanied by jaw pain and stiffness?
Hi all, I went to the doctors yesterday and they said I had an outer ear infection. My ear is incredibly blocked and can hardly hear anything, I have a perforated eardrum which I’ve had for years so can’t use any ear drops or anything similar, can you recommend anything that can promptly unblock my ear? Also will the antibiotics help unblock as well? It’s starting to make me go loopy not being able to properly hear out of my left ear! The pain from it is also travelling to my jaw bone like directly next to the middle of my ear where it connects, it feels like the joint. It’s very stiff as well to open my mouth, can anyone advise what this is? Thanks in advance.
