Sharp earpain and ear block from 3 days
I have been having sharp, unbearable ear pain in the left ear for 3 consecutive days and my left ear has been blocked from last 7 days. I have taken ciplox, it felt a little better but now another Dr. advised to stop taking ciplox drops because I do not have fever, nor any discharge.
It is a really high level of pain and I have consulted various doctors, soms say it is an ear infection, some it is not. I cannot understand what course of medicine to follow and treat my pain and blockage.
Please help and advise.
