A member asked:
Can an ear infection give you diarrhea? i have been using antibiotic ear spray but haven't taken anything orally
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Oral antibiotics could give you diarrhea, but an antibiotic applied directly to the ear shouldn't. Otherwise and ear infection should not give you gastrointestinal symptoms.
