Hi Sir,

Please advise if any medication recommended tablets.

Hi.
From what I read , I think you have otitis externa which is an infection of the skin of the ear canal .
This can be due to fungal or bacterial infection.
If your symptoms are severe you may have to show a local ent and get the ear cleaned.
Next Steps
For now you can put candidbiotic ear drops 4 drops four times a day.
Health Tips
Avoid water entry into your ears and avoid putting ear buds
