Dr Scott On Ear Pain

Ear pain can be uncomfortable and there are two common culprits that might be behind the discomfort: Swimmer's Ear and Inner Ear Infections.

🏊‍♀️👂 Swimmer's Ear: Not Just for Swimmers: Despite the name, water exposure isn't the sole trigger. Moisture creates a perfect environment for bacterial growth, causing inflammation and pain.

Inner Ear Infection: Infections in the inner ear usually stem from upper respiratory infections causing fluid accumulation behind the ear drum. They start with congestion, runny nose sore throat and often have fever.

✅ What to Do:

Ear Pain? Call Your Doctor! Don't play detective with ear pain. Schedule a doctor's appointment to pinpoint the issue accurately.

Keep It Dry: Keep your ears dry and avoid inserting foreign objects.

Avoid Self-Diagnosis: Over-the-counter remedies might not cut it. Let a pro guide you to the right treatment.

Your ears are precious; don't let pain linger. Seek professional advice for a precise diagnosis and the right remedy. 🙌💙
