Ear pain after drinking cold food items
Whenever I drink cold water or cold good items continuously for an extended period of time i experience some pain in my right year.
I went to doctor for this , he said it's due to some infection and I might loose hearing if I continue drinking cold things.
It happened once back in 2021 after the doctor said this i stopped consumption of cold items and the pain stopped after some medication , but couldn't resist and had to go for a second time one year later and again the pain stopped after applying the medicine. But since it's very hot during summer I can't resist keeping away from cold items , and the pain has started again. I need this thing to solved permanently. As far as I remember the doc said , the ear drum has become red .
Is there any solution, do i really need to give up cold items? Please help
