I felt off balance yesterday so my dad said to use debrox the minute the liquid got into my ear it hurt. is that normal? do i have a ear infection

Debox May Hurt: Flushing your ears with debrox is about flushing your ears with dilute peroxide solution -- this may burn, if there is any break in the skin of your ear canal or if there is a hole in your eardrum. If the burning stopped and your hearing is ok, nothing else to do. If symptoms persist, go see your primary care provider for an exam.

Off balance: Falling off balance (without alcohol or other drugs being involved) on a horizontal and level surface, especially if it is repeated, it can be very significant for your health. Go see an internal medicine physician and eventual an ent. It can be a banal ear infection, a labyrintitis, or even worse, a brain injury or a tumor.
