Severe Ear ache
I have constant severe pain inside right ear, from last 2 days,with throbbing pain that comes and goes in intervals. I have been using soliwax ear drops from last 2 days and pain killers but don't seem to benefit much. Pain mainly gets worse at night. I also feel a little itchy at times. What could this be and how much time does it normally take for ear ache/infection to heal?

Symptoms that you have mentioned it looks like you are having a kind of infection in the ear. It is very important to know the site of the infection before advising you in it treatment. I will like that you provide further more inputs for me to come to a diagnosis of your problem and suggest you proper treatment. You can book a tele-consultation for the same. Thank you
