What Causes Severe Ear Pain And Dizziness?

I have ear pain and wake up during the night, dizzy, and this often causes diarrhea, I had similar symptoms about 2 months ago. I took amoxacilyin (sp?) (antibiotics) for ten days and seemed to be better, but now it is back again. Should I be looking for or expecting something different than a simple ear infection?

Hello,
Diarrhoea does not occur with ear infection.. Diarrhoea may occur with use of amoxicillin antibiotic.
Ear pain , dizzy feeling could occur because of the ear infection.
You need to take antibiotic and decongestant and antihistaminic.
Such ear infection takes time like 2-3 weeks to subside completely ,,so a course of antibiotic and with 2-3 weeks use of decongestants and antihistaminic is required.
In doubt do reply.
