Ear pain and ear block like feeling

2020-04-02 16:33:22
I am having an ear pain, I took an online appointment with a doctor in practo and he diagnosed it as "acute otitis media" and prescribed medicines for it (attaching the prescription). But I am still experiencing some sort of fluid movement in my ears and I feel the infected ear is blocked. Is this common? Please advice

Hi The prescription dates 31/3/2020. So you are still in the middle of the treatment. Also I get that your pain is coming down, but its the block that's bothering you. This block feeling is common in middle ear infection. Please finish the present treatment Take steam inhalation for 10 min after the otrivin spray.
Next Steps
If the feeling persist after the treatment is over, please consult.
