Possible Ear Infection

2017-11-24 11:03:29
I have had an ear infection in the past where my skin starts to become red and blotchy which causes the face to swell up. The redness is incredibly itchy but not painful. This has just started to occur again this morning, do you have any advice for me? Many thanks.
