Blocked Ear

Asked for Male, 30 Years

Hi. I had a pain in ear 4 to 5 days back. Took a pain killer and pain subsided. Past 2 days my ear was feeling blocked so asked my nephew to check. He said it wax inside and I tried to clean. Suddenly there was little blood n since then it is blocked. I used Drep ear drops prescribed by local GP. What could be the reason.

Keep your affected ear dry or in other words plug the affected ear with cotton wool whenever you bathe for 15 days. Apply the ear drops 5 drops only once a day for 15 days. If you get a pus discharge consult an ENT specialist immediately.
