i went back to see anothe doctore and prescribe sofradex ear drops and advice me to stop using kenacomb otic. it is now day 5 and my hearing on one ear is still muffled. I can hear normally when i use the phone on that ear but it is just the annoying muffled sound that is persistent. can you please help me. what can i do to stop the muffled sound in my ear?
Likewise, I was given eye drops (TobraDex) after the floxin ear drops failed to clear up a resistant infection. I don't think it will hurt you, but mine burned a bit when I first put them in. My ENT said the eye drops have a steroid, so they it is more aggressive at killing infections.
Anyways, after 3 weeks of the eye drops....even the eye drops hasn't fully killed the infection, so I guess I have a particularly nasty strain.
There no wax or nay kind of discharge from the ears. We have shown to an ENT doctor and the ears appear to be clean. She has used OTIC drops prescribed by doctor but itching persists and as a result ear bud or finger need to used frequently to ease the pain and itch. Ear appears to be dry as tiny white dots are seen with occasional flake.
the first 6 days when i put the drops he seems fine but now on the seventh day when i put the drops he`s crying ,its like he`s feeling some burning sensation or maybe stinging..i dont know what he really feels..he`s only 21 mos.my question is ..is that normal..after 6 days of drops suddenly he feels uncomfortable?
In the month of May, I returned to home from college and I started to experience ear pain and fullness. Went to some local doctor, the doc prescribed ear wax drops. It did not help. Then, I followed with a series of appointments with several doctors some prescribing cold tabs and some antibiotics. It did not help the hearing but the pain went away.
In july, I went to an ENT doctor, she prescribed me a nasal spray, cold tabs and asked me to do valsalva maneuver.
He has an ear infection, which I have learned is common in goldens. His vet had me treat it with ear drops and antibiotics. He went back today (after 2 weeks) and they said that he would need to have his ear flushed. This procedure would cause him to be put under sedation. The cost would be over 250.00. The vet said that he has wax and debris in his ear canal and if it is not treated, his ear drum could rupture, causing hearing loss and further infection. Is this truly necessary?
My dog has allergies, which we are managing pretty well. However, his ear itch & he scratches them so hard, I'm afraid he'll hurt himself. His ears are not red or dirty, but damp inside. Oti cleanse/epi otic don't help. I'm thinking his ears are stuffy & he needs a decongestant. What would you recommend?
Epi-Otic Ear Cleanser ($12.95 from Amazon) for an initial cleanse, the finish off with Mometamax Otic Suspension ($26.99 from 1-800-PetMeds).
You'll need an Rx from your vet for the Momentamax, but it's the best thing since sliced bread and will knock out a yeast infection quicker than you can say M-O-M-E-N-T-A-M-A-X.
My English Mastiff is prone to them, and this combination has always worked well for her.
Hi, 13 YEARS A GO I HAD A KIDNEY INFECTION WITH A BACTERIA CALL ESCHERICHIA-COLI, AFTER I TOOK THE MEDICATION FOR 10 DAYS , ABOUT A WEEK AFTER, I STARTED WITH PAIN AND BURNING SENSATION ON THE HEAD OF MY PENIS,,I WENT TO ALL TYPES OF DOCTORS, UROLOGIST, DERMATOLOGIST AND THEY ALL TOLL ME THAT I DID NOT HAVE ANY THING, HOW EVER THEY WOULD GIVE ME ALL KINDS OF CREAMS THAT, DID NOT DO ANY THING FOR ME ,,I MET A LADY WHO HAD THE SAME SYNTOMS FOR ABOUT 12 YEARS, SHE WAS ADVISED BY A FRIEND DOCT
On Monday morning I woke with an ear infection. I went to the doctor right away and was given Otic Edge, told to continue an antibiotic I was already on, to call if it wasn't felling better in a couple of days, and to schedule a recheck for a week later. Thursday, my ear still felt plugged, I was getting sharp pains, and ringing so I went back to the doctor. He said that there is alot of drainage in there and it kinda looked like swimmer's ear.
I have had itchy, flaking, draining ears ever since swimming in a pool down at DisneyLand 25 years ago. I would use the prescription antibiotics drops, which would relieve the problem for a little while, but then the whole thing would start over again. Recently I have used two new product that seem to be the answer. Don't laugh but there is a non-prescription otic solution used on dogs with the same types of symptons called ZYMOX with hydrocortisone (Amazon.com).
My dog has weepy eyes again & we have a tube of otocomb*otic ointment that I'm pretty sure we used last time.
Does that sound right? I want to make sure they it'd the right tube.
I adopted her and now may have to give away as I just can not afford. My friend uses Zymox Otic and said its natural and did better than the different drugs. Her Vet gave it to her. I just can not afford another Vet appoitment if will lead to nothing..I am am ropes end. Do you know this and whether it can help her.?
My dog has a mild yeast infection in her left ear but she may have a tear in her eadrdrum. The vet gave us TrizEDTA but due to her losing her hearing from Tri-Otic, we didn't want to use any more ear medication that can cause hearing loss. I've recently started making her home cooked meals, wipe her down with apple cider vinegar+water, and flushing her ears out every other day plus cleaning the outer part of her ears on days I don't flush.
I'm using Zymox Otic now, on my 3rd day. I've had itchy wet, peeling ears for 4 years. Tried everything. Read lots of posts. I'm trying Zymox and not yet seeing any relief. I do notice that my ears feel especially itchy while I have the Zymox in my ear, maybe because it's "working"? And at night I tend to scratch them when I'm half asleep, and they seem especially sensitive afterward.
Hi tigerlily4,
It's probably pretty rare but some antibiotics have been known to cause nerve damage and impair sexual ability - Floxin is one I've heard that can do it. Here's one man's account of his wife's run in with it
http://www.stephenfried.com/bitter-pills/bitterpillsbook_chp1.
I was able to watch the video. MalAcetic Otic and antibiotics applied to the wound twice daily until healed should work. A good antibiotic ointment for is Triple Antibiotic. Have a veterinarian examine your pet if you think the injury may go all the way through the skin. It really looks painful.
My partner was recently diagnosed with gonococcal prostatitus and has undergone a rather horrible treatment consisting of 2 urethral cauterizations plus a 7 day series of iv injections of azithromycin and some type of floxin. After terminating the treatment, his doctor performed a prostate massage and informed that he was free of gonorrhea but still had an elevated white blood cell count. The doctor then recommended a third cauterization.
I actually do. But, I have the hypo-allergenic ones. When I wipe Titus down he loves it, I also wipe the inside of his ears and in his muzzle wrinkles too. When I do it around his eyes I just wipe the eye boogies and don't get it in his eyes. The wipes don't replace the baths & epi-otic ear cleaning, but inbetween the baths etc, I use the wipes and never noticed any irritation. I use the Kirkland non-scented hypo-allergenic wipes.
