Hello and thanks for your post

Some people are prone to ear infections and you do need to give your antibiotics more time to work. If there is no improvement after you finish them do make another appointment to see your GP. Sometimes another course of antibiotics as well as the eardrops are suggested again to clear the infection.

Hopefully people will come along and share their experiences with you, as support like this can be invaluable. But it’s important to bear in mind that even if there are other people who have experienced similar things to you, I’m not sure that their experience will shed much light about what is going on with you. 

I hope things improve for you soon. Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Kind regards,

Celene
