Inner ear infection/ear drum. My hearing hasn’t improved and it’s day 7, normal?
What started as strep throat ended in an ear infection and urgent care doctor said it’s probably ruptured as well so they put me on two antibiotics, amoxicillin and the ear drops for the rupture. Doc said she expects my hearing to return in 2-3 days but I am on day 7 and haven’t had any improvement in my hearing although the pain is mainly gone. Should I return to the doctor? It is my right ear and the right side of my throat started to feel sore again today as well and I do feel some pressure like there’s a lot of pus in there. It’s tough to get to a doctor because of work. Thanks for any help. By the way, I am pretty much completely deaf in my right ear.
