Cab your ear start hurting after being on an antibiotic for your throat. my ear didn't hurt until after a few rounds of the antibiotic ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More information: There is one particular antibiotic that can affect hearing called gentamycin but that's not the same as pain so I'd need more information about what's going on to see whether or not there's any relationship between the antibiotic and your symptom. You may also be developing an otitis from a superinfection if the antibiotic is causing resistance issues. Private consult: www.healthtap.com/drsaghafi
