A member asked:

Finished rx ciprodex optic suspension drops 4 ear infection. ears still hurt. i'm supposed 2 fly 2 chicago friday. i'm hesitant 2 fly--should i b?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Outer or middle?: If treatment was just Ciprodex, I am suspecting you had an outer ear infection. Flying would have no affect on this, good or bad, at all. On the other hand, if you had a middle ear infection that has not cleared, pressure changes could be uncomfortable during flight. Find out from doctor which you had, or get rechecked before flying.
