Hello Doctor,
I've been experiencing dryness in both of my ears, with the earwax being very hard and dry. It feels like it's causing dizziness, and there's an earache along with itchiness and discomfort. Additionally, I have pain below my ears in the jaw area, which seems to be related to the ear problem. Could this be an ear infection, or is it something else?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
It's important that you don't wait and visit an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist as soon as possible to evaluate the clinical condition of your ears. The doctor will be able to assess your symptoms and determine the cause of the dryness, dizziness, and pain. They may prescribe earwax softening drops, antibiotic or antifungal ear drops, and possibly an oral antibiotic if there's an infection. It's crucial to address these symptoms promptly to prevent further complications.
Thanks
