Know How Our iCliniq Doctor Helped A Patient With Ear Discomfort

A patient consulted our iCliniq doctor with a complaint of itching and mild pain in his ear, which, he as well mentioned, aggravated during the cold weather. He also revealed that he was diagnosed with swimmer’s ear infection syndrome in the past and was advised to use steroid-based ear drops as a treatment.

Our iCliniq doctor analyzed the condition carefully and explained to the patient about the swimmer’s ear infection in detail. He also specified how moisture and the anatomical position of the ear canal could lead to infection, which our doctor thought was a possible cause for the patient’s symptoms of itching and pain. He further advised the patient to try keeping the ears dry and use ear drops and antihistamines to help relieve the pain and itching.

The patient reverted and thanked the doctor for explaining his condition. Further, he also requested guidance regarding getting a hearing aid to help him improve his hearing quality. He also provided his pure tone audiogram report.

Our doctor analyzed the pure tone audiogram report that the patient had attached. He diagnosed a mild high-frequency hearing loss in the patient and advised a hearing aid that would suit him the best.

The patient thanked our doctor for helping him with his issue and added that our doctor was very precise at explaining every minute detail and helped him understand better.
