Help! I have terrible pain in my left ear! I cant hear out of it!?!


Question: Help! I have terrible pain in my left ear! I cant hear out of it!!?
I was grocery shopping yesterday and slowly felt the pressure in my left ear building up!. I tried to pop it but it refused to pop!. I have taken tylenol, a decongestant, done the whole peroxide in the ear, slept on a heating pad, and nothing is working! Just now i burped and it popped a little!. I took a q tip to my ear and there was a little bit of blood in it!. Not much just enough to make it pink!.
I am in real bad pain here and don't know what else I can do!. Any suggestions!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Don't panic! Your eardrum may not have ruptured, but the pressure from infection and/or fluid build up is preventing vibration (hearing)!. If it did rupture you would not feel the pressure anymore, just pain!.You should get to a doctor and get on some antibiotics!. You physician will decide if the pressure needs immediate intervention!. Your physician may also put you on a daily med like allegra or zyrtec to prevent future fluid build-up!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like a severe infection that caused your eardrum to burst!. Get to your doctor or minute clinic for an antibiotic!. There are also over-the-counter numbing drops especially for ears!. It will not cure the infection but can make it feel better until the antibiotics kick in!.
Be sure to take the entire course of antibiotics too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like you might have an ear infection, pop along to your doctor and get it looked at!. Left untreated an infection can lead to deafness and other problems so it's worth getting it checked and getting something to clear it up!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
