Ear infection ...

[tripaddict]

can hear fuck all through my left ear and it fucking hurts ... waiting for the doctors surgery to open.

... you know that thing that equalises the pressure in your ears ... its blocked in my left

just had a hot bath but has done nothing ... omg am i in pain ... and its very unpleasant

going to roll a joint see if that eases the pain .... if any one has any suggestions im all ears lmao

or at least all one of them

not to mention i have a tune i really want to finish and cant

[drokkr]

Thankfully, I've not had one for years.
Fill and wrap a hot water bottle in towel and holder it to you ear or lie on it, it use to work for me.

Get to the doctors as soon as possible, they should give you antibiotics. I had one recently and it was fucking horrendous.

[eops]

Ive had loads of problems like this - I think its down to 'in ear' ipod headphones -
basically Ibuprofen will ease the swelling - other than that you have to wait to get antibiotics from the doc

When I went to see the ear nose throat hospital they said its very important NOT to get moisture inside the ear as it often reignites the problem
So take care when you shower - DONT stick you head under the water in a bath and change them headphones

My deepest sympathy - ear infections suck the devils slong

No need to go to the doctor.. your local pharmacist should have some eardrops.. he will probably tell you to give it 2 drops 3 times a day and give you a little toothpastelooking container of sticky eardrops.. nasty and greasy as fuck but it cures you in a day or something. Worked for me.

I would go to the doctors if it persists - there are many types of ear infections and I made my initial infection much worse by using the wrong type of ear drops as selected by a frankly disinterested chemist

[bandshell]

Don't get ear drops. I was given ear drops first and my ear had swollen up so the ear drops didn't go all the way in and solidified in my ear and then leaked out at night. Basically, they did fuck all to help and just made it worse.

Thats what Im talking about -

Remember the ear is a delicate organ and you wouldnt stick stuff willy nilly in your eyes for example would you?

The Ear Nose and Throat doctor I saw was great (I love the NHS) and my ears are much better now. Doctors are there to help

Also they will prolly test your ears when you go in - I found out my hearing is slightly rightsided and that was interesting to know - apparently everyone has a slightly different stereo balance and its yer brain that EQs the shit together

[tripaddict]

welll ... i slept all day and missed the doctors lol but my hearing is coming back and it doesnt hurt as much now as what it did this morning, i think it'll be ok by tomorrow ... not only was i in agony it affected my balance which was amusing

last night i was a little worried b/c i couldnt hear much, if it gets worse again between now n the morning im off to the docs

thanks for all your help & advice ... @drokkr the hotwater bottle worked wonders

[gnome]

It could be really bad news if it affects your balance thats pure IN ear shit there man like MIDDLE ear. get to the doctors anyway

[frank grimes jr.]

I've had this problem all my adult life, here's what I do.
Take a hot, hot shower.
Using your index and middle finger, rub from the back of your ear down your jawline.
Should clear you up in half an hour or so. You've just got to clear the tube that drains into your neck hole.
