It only hurts on the outside so I know for a fact it is not otitis media. I just put hydrogen peroxide on where I picked at it and I can hear it bubbling. I looked in the mirror to see that my ear was red. I never had anything like this and I am seeing my doctor next week, but right now I am anxious. It only hurts when I touch it and when I lie down on a pillow. Does anyone have a clue what this could be? It's so new to me...the only ear disorder that I am familiar with is otitis media.
also the ER doctor stated that he did not think it was vertigo that i was experiencing, he diagnosed me with otitis media and gave me an antibiotic. however, i stopped taking to antibiotic due to increased anxiety which has subsided since stopping the antibiotic, although i am not positive that the anxiety was caused by the antibiotic, i am still not taking it. i saw my gp, and he advised that i discontinue the antibiotic as well, and told me to just wait it out and see what happens.
A cyclic pattern of fever is seen in EBV or infectious mononeucleosis, malaria, autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, SLE, otitis media, endocarditis, IBS, STDs and cancers. Rare causes of unexplained fevers include (but are not limited to) taking certain medications, adrenal disease, hematomas, hyperthyroidism, pulmonary emboli, and previously undetected thrombophlebitis You can go over all these possibilities to see what has not been tested for.
Hope this helps.
Lyme and Syphilis tests were negative (though the p14 protein in case of Lyme disease test was positive). I had a very bad otitis media in February-March 2015. After that, a tinnitus remained in my right ear. Now, the otitis reappeared (both ears).
Besides these investigations, I went to the psychiatry and took meds for anxiety and depression with no results. Actually, they worsen my condition.
Itching, and a feeling of fullness inside the ear - usually the first sign of infection * Swelling of the ear canal * Watery discharge from the ear * Severe pain and tenderness in the ear - especially when moving the head and jaw, or gently pulling the earlobe. Unlike a middle ear infection (otitis media), the pain of an ear canal inflammation or infection is worse when you chew, when you press on the "tag" in front of the ear, or when you wiggle your earlobe.
Whups, I wrote "inner ear" above, but my antibiotics prescription says "otitis media", so I guess it's the middle ear that's affected.
i went to the ENT specialist yesterday and he said that I have otitis media. I was able to tell him also that I have been dizzy (feeling of floating) for almost a month since ive started using treatments for my sinusitis. My balance is okay and I don't have that ear pain in both ears. Its just that the "floating feeling" isnt tolerable these past few days. It hinders me in getting my work done.
Please help me find a cure for these. Hoping for your replies guys. Thank you.
However discharge may also be caused by a minor irritation or infection. The common causes of ear discharge are eczema, otitis externa, otitis media, mastoiditis or a ruptured or perforated eardrum. An ear examination may be helpful for determining the correct cause of your symptoms. Treatment will depend on the underlying cause.

Hello everyone, I am 17 years old male and for the last 4 days I've been sick with otitis media. Mostly everyday I've got high fever (like 100-101 F). My normal blood pressure is around 120/80, but since I am sick it is 138/82.. Can it be that the illness causes my bp to rise or something? I also feel palps sometimes, dunno if that can also be caused by the illness...
hi,this could be otitis media along with cervical spondyolosis.Otitis media is collection of fluid which is usually a sequelae to viral infection.Cervical spondylosis is degenerative disease of cervical vertebrae.
Although,headache is associated with otitis media but restriction or pain during neck movement is rarely seen.Otitis media is treated with antibiotics,anti histaminics along with analgesics.

Whether you should take it for a sinus infection is a better question. Sinusitis is second behind otitis media as the most over-diagnosed condition here in the States. Most people who say or even have been told by their doctor that they have sinusitis, in fact don't. I know this because of the huge number of people who get referred to me with this diagnosis, who upon CT scanning, don't have sinusitis.
I think, this problem of yours goes in the favor of Acute Suppurative Otitis Media. This condition appears because of the closure of the eustachian tube following common cold. Due to which there is negative pressure created inside the middle ear and the inflammatory exudates get accumulated. Once this exceeds the pressure, the ear drum gives way and one experiences discharge from the ear.
Recurrent or chronic fever is seen in typhoid, tuberculosis, hepatitis, SLE, rheumatoid arthritis, Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) and other auto immune disorders, UTI, drug fever, sinusitis, glandular fever, otitis media, IBS, HIV, STDs, endocarditis, parasitic infestations (like malaria), fungal infections, lymphomas and other cancers etc. It can even be diabetes and hyperthyroidism.

Hi. I'm curious if you were able to see the doctor about this and what they said! My understanding is that this could be something as simple as a pimple. Sign, pimples. What a pain! But also something like 'swimmer's ear'. Acute otitis media also could cause it. Since she was sick in general, I hope the doctor was able to diagnose her. I'd be really curious what the outcome was.
I know this is an old question, but if you've never had anyone check, you may want to ask your ENT to make sure you don't have a cholesteatoma in that ear, as these can be signs of one.
Has the mum given the baby any baby panadol, or nurofen for babies? That will help reduce the fever, however 5-days with a fever is extremely dangerous! If you can't reduce the childs fever take her to the doctor asap. I'm not a mum but my sister in law is a nurse and has 2-kids of her own. When they've had fevers in the past that she couldn't bring down she immediately took them to the hospital.
Children can get very sick and it happen very quickly.
