Ear Infection

You REALLY should not swim for at least 7 days, and you should try to prevent from water getting in it at all. It also helps to put a cotton ball in it while showering. You should'nt share your headphones for a while (to prevent giving it to someone).

The only place I would tell you to go is go to the pharmacy! Get the pills called Amoxicillin 500 Mg. Trust me on this one I had ur problem before I took this when I went to the doctors my ear felt better u just have to drink it for ten days or more if ur doctor tells u too! I hope I helped!

Hi there. I personally think that they can. In fact I just googled this very question myself and I'm having allergy/mild sinus issues the past few days. Additonally I've been having this tingling in my scalp on one side and sometimes even in my throat. It's been off an on over several days and very slight but still creepy. I've worried myself over "could it be a stroke" but calmed myself after reading about onset of stroke etc. Hopefully you're doing well now and the feeling is gone. Take care!

If you use overdose ear drops for an acute ear infection you must consult your doctor

Don't sleep on the ear that's infected before bed be sure to clean it with the proper solution. Make sure your pillow case is clean. Then sleep on your side of the opposite ear or on your back or stomach.

Yes!!! I was born deaf in one ear, had 4 surgeries, then finally an eardrum transplant. I have had so many infections my whole life and only one medicine worked until highschool. When I got into highschool a new bacteria had come through and gave me worse ear infections where my whole canal and ear puffed up then closed with an eardrum rupture everytime. Well long story short I went to an ear specialist, and he told me absolutely nothing works except this medicine for ear infections. Hydrogen peroxide does nothing, and any other at home tricks seriously do not help heal it even a little bit. Ever since then I’ve been taking this antibiotic when I get an infection and it works very well.

Ear infections are very common in babies.3out of 4 children get at least one ear infection by age 2.You should have your child looked at by a doctor and they might perscribe something for him/her.

To prevent damage to your ears make sure you clean them often. Yes you can use Q tips but make sure you don't insert deep in the ear canal. When listening to music try avoiding putting the volume so loud. This can lead to hearing problems.

Answer common. Make sure you see a doctor, just to be sure. If it is an ear infection Your dizziness could be caused by an ear infection, but if it is a dental problem, it is probably inflammation of the TMJ bone in your skull. I have TMJ problems myself, and I sometimes get dizzy, have pain that feels like it is inside my ear, and get headaches and jaw aches from time to time. Either way, you should go to the doctor and have it checked out, but if you have pain in your ears and jaw (and sometimes in your neck), and you feel and popping or clicking in your jaw, you may want to visit a dentist first.
