Suggest Treatment For Clogged, Painful And Ringing Ear Post Eardrum Rupture
Hi there. I think I ruptured my eardrum last week Sunday. I went to urgent care but they just gave me a generic prescription for amoxicillin. My ear is not getting any better. It s still clogged, hurts sometimes and the ringing won t stop! Should I go to the ER? Urgent care didn t seem to give a crap about how I felt.

Hello,
As first line management, you can take drugs like betahistine for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.
A detailed evaluation is required including a CT scan is required for further assessment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
