Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your symptoms are suggestive of a middle ear infection. There is the possibility of wax in the ear canal.

Is there any discharge from the ear?

Do you have a cold or nasal block?

Until you consult an ENT (ear-nose-throat) for this issue, for the time being, you can follow the precautions mentioned below;

1) Tablet Paracetamol (Tylenol) 650 mg three times a day after food.

2) Antihistamines tablets like Levocetrizine 5 mg once a day.

3) Use Ofloxacin (antibiotic) ear drops two drops three times a day.

4) Tablet Chymoral Forte (trypsin-chymotrypsin) twice a day, one hour before food.

5) Also, take steam inhalation three times a day.

6) Take only hot food or drinks.

7) Also, avoid swimming or taking a head bath till the pain is gone.

Try to visit an ENT surgeon to see if you have wax in your ears.

Regards.
