What Are The Symptoms Of Ear Infection?

Hi, my eyelids feel hot, my forehead is hot, my left ear really hurts like an ear infection but my right ear is relatively fine. I went to a nurse and she checked out my ears once and said that there was some fluid it them and that they looked a little cloudy. Also, it seems as thought I have a fever...My throat hurts and when I drink water it seems like it is just like sliding down my throat. I have a cough that has mucus in it, but it s not a constant one. My back and joints hurt too so I don t know whats wrong. Ive felt like this for 2 days. I m 15 years old 5 2 , 111lbs. Please help?

Hello,

You may be suffering from bilateral middle ear infection with tympanic membrane rupture. Use tablet amoxicillin with clavulinic acid 625 mg twice a day for five days. Use water vapour inhalation thrice a day for five days. Use salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. Use otrivin nasal drops for to relieve congestion. If no improvement please consult with your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
