Ear Disorders

Swimmer’s Ear (Otitis Externa)

This condition describes an infection of the outer ear and ear canal. This is usually accompanied by pain in the ear, clogged ear sensation, as well as occasional drainage from the ear canals. Usual treatment includes removal of any pus from the ear canal, followed by treatment with antibiotic eardrops.

Middle Ear Infection (Otitis Media)

More commonly seen in children, this describes pus behind the eardrum. Often accompanied by fever and general malaise, the condition may be seen in one or both ears. Treatment usually includes antibiotics, and possible decongestants to drain the ear internally. For more information on management of middle ear fluid, read our blog.


Clogged Ear

Clogged ear sensation could be due to earwax, estachian tube disorder, or any condition of the inner ear. Evaluation usually includes inspection of the ear, as well as a hearing test. For more information on best ways to clean earwax, read our blog

Hearing loss could be due to earwax accumulation, ear infection, holes in the eardrum, or impairment of the organ of hearing.
