A member asked:
Medicated ear drops used to treat disorders commonly cause local irritation and sensitivity reactions why ? can anyone help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hmm: Most common problem is temperature. Warm up ear drops in hand for a while before to avoid a weird reaction to drops. Otherwise if you skin is reacting, then it is something else.
