Where can i go for free antibiotics for ear infection caused by wisdom tooth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Peculiar question: Wisdom tooth issues can cause ear pain but it is not an infection. Simple anti inflammatory agents like Ibuprofen are helpful.A true ear infection is caused by germs and should be verified by visual inspection. If you have a local free clinic, have it checked. Antibiotics are not handed out based on your guess about what is needed.
