Hi doc! Can I take antibiotic augmentin 625 for 5 days, specially if I have been having left ear plugged feeling and mild dizziness for over 2 months. All test results have come normal. Have already consulted 2 ENTs. Does single course of antibiotic cause resistance?

Hii, I dont think an antibiotic can help your ear symptoms.  You have to find out the cause of ear block and treat for that

Better to do a audiology test-pure tone audiometry  and decide on treatment  plan. Please consult  for more details
