I have had ear infections I don't know how many times a year, and cann't seem to get rid of them.

I have 2 diff. antib. since Oct. and the injection has moved to the other side and going down my neck.

I have been to two differ. ENT dr. in the past, I wasn't to happy with either one.

I'm tried of just them giving me a medic./antib. I want to know why this is a recurring issue.
 
Sometimes chronic ear infections are the result of cumulative damage to eardrum -- either a hole, some other stretching or thinning of the structure -- that makes it prone to additional infections. Have you been checked out by an ENT?
 
Thank you for your reply.

I have tried 2 diff. ones in a near by town. I felt I was more of a problem to them rather than a patient.

I just called my Phar. for a recommendation and have already called and made an appt. for Monday.

I was thinking of buying so mineral oil to use until then.
 
I hope you get some relief soon.
