A member asked:

Had inner&outer ear infection for 2 weeks.taken spray 6 days now,&amoxicillin for last 72hours.ears still painful &blocked &have severe fatigue.should i assume the antibiotics havent worked and go back to doctor? or leave longer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Reexamination: The blocked ear can be from severe nasal membrane congestion and/ or inflammation and fluid in the ear drum. I assume wax isn't causing the blockage. At this point I recommend consulting an Otolaryngologist in view of the ongoing pain and possible fluid build-up. Continue decongestant nasal spray if nasal passage is blocked.
