Hello Doctor,
I found something unusual in my ear, and I’m not sure if it’s related to an ear infection or if it’s something more serious. Could you please help me understand what it might be and if I should be worried?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out Dr. Galen, Please find the below response to your query.
1. What you’re seeing could be related to an ear infection, such as inflammation or fluid buildup inside the ear. Ear infections often cause symptoms like pain, discomfort, fullness, or sometimes discharge. It’s important to watch for these signs and any changes in your hearing.
2. If you notice worsening pain, discharge, fever, or hearing loss, it’s best to have your ear examined by a healthcare professional. Early evaluation helps to diagnose the issue correctly and start treatment if needed. If symptoms are mild and stable, you can monitor closely but don’t hesitate to seek care if things change.
Thanks
