Question 4

upper outer ear (skin, not inside/canal) suddenly red and throbbing.  can this be like acne or a clogged pore?  can i presume it will go away soon?

Question 5

ear infection never went away completely? i was on amoxicillin for a week and it disappeared for a week and came back again. clogging, sensitive hearing, dizziness, faint feeling, throbbing dull pain, and new pain behind ear and side of neck?

Accepted Answer

Ear infection : Please provide some clarity. Did you see a doctor? Did the doctor recommend amoxicillin? Did you take it in the recent past? Did you take all the amoxicillin?. Did you actually have an infection? Was it a bacterial infection that requires antibiotics or common viral which do not? Were your bacterial resistant to amoxicillin?  In the end, the best way to answer your concern is to see a doctor

Question 6

got an ear infection and was prescribed neomycin-polymyxin b sulfates and hydrocortisone otic solution ear drops, i put some in one drop to both ears every three hours and now my left ear is clogged throbbing and muffled hearing, should i go back?

Accepted Answer

: Your drops are used to treat infection/inflammation of the ear canal only. Your clogged,throbbing, hearing impairment could be from swelling of ?the canal, movement or expansion of ear wax or inflammation of the ear drum, which requires oral antibiotics. I recommend having your ear reexamined to see what the current situation is &amp; get appropriate treatment. You may want to see an ENT specialist

See your doctor : again. It doesn't sound like your infection has been completely resolved. You may need another round of something else, especially if your eyes feel sore. Don't delay.

Question 9

homemade remedies for a sinus infection? nose and forehead are throbbing and head feels clogged up.

Accepted Answer

Nasal Saline Irrigat: It's allergy season, and especially for those who suffer from sinus disease and or have nasal polyps its the worst it can get right now. Most allergists and ENT specialists try to have their patients on optimal therapy. Nasal saline irrigations have revolutionized care for chronic sufferers, reducing the number of nasal/sinus surgeries tremendously.  Preparations avail otc, recipes online.

Question 10

i have been having a numbness on the r side of my face with a headache & throbbing...and the skin and right ear get very hot to the touch. ?

Accepted Answer

Complicated migraine: this is most likely a complicated migraine based on throbbing pain and skin sensitivity vs less likely brain lesion affecting the cranial nerve 5 or autonomic trigeminal cephalgia. you need to see a neurologist for this issue and get MRI brain to rule out demyelinating or space occupying lesions, but again highest suspicion is for migraine
