Can I use antibiotic ear drops twice?
Hi, I am about 14 weeks pregnant and about 3 weeks ago I had an ear infection. The doctor gave me antibiotic ear drops which made the infection clear up. Within a day of it clearing, I had a pimple inside the same ear that swelled up and was very painful. I had to go on a course of oral antibiotics.. that cleared up and now a week has passed and it feels like my ear is full of liquid and seems like it's turning into another ear infection.
Is it safe to use the same ear drops again?
thanks
