A member asked:
If i feel like an ear infection is coming on, swollen & tender ear, is there anything i can do to stop if from getting worse?

Prompt antibiotic treatment is the only option. It sounds like you have had this problem before. If so, contact the doctor or clinic where it was treated and get their advice. Or see another doctor ASAP and take it from there. Good luck.
