Severe ear infection

2018-08-26 01:57:57
I have an inner ear infection thats not gotten any better with amoxicillin so far over the past 4 days. No OTC pain meds are subsiding the pain, unless i take both at the same time and morr than im supposed to. Ive been using everything from olive oil to teatree oil to garlic to earache drops to hydrogen peroxide to heat and nothings helping
