ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for the query.

After reading your clinical history it appears that you are most probably having
otitis externa .

If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
Keep ear dry , don’t allow water go inside while bath &
use Neosporin H ear drop 3 3 3 .

I will suggest you to please consult your ENT doctor because here clinical examination is very important to diagnose the real fact and accordingly treatment may be planed.
Hope this helps , Thanks.
