Ear infections can be either bacterial or viral infections. They generally occur in your middle ear, which is the part of your ear just behind your eardrum, and also the outer and inner ear. They often clear up automatically but can be painful due to inflammation or fluid buildup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The infections in the ear can be chronic or acute. Acute ear infections are painful. Chronic ear infections recur many times. They can cause damage to the middle and inner ear, which is infrequently permanent<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the ear infection is mild, depending on the age, your healthcare provider may choose to wait a few days to see if the infection goes away on its own before prescribing an antibiotic. They may prescribe antibiotics if your ear infection is bacterial, chronic, or doesn\u2019t appear to be improving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Surgery is the ultimate option if your ear infection doesn’t get eliminated with the usual medical treatments or if you have many ear infections over a short period.Most often, ear tubes get placed in your ears to allow fluid to drain out. These tubes get inserted into your eardrums. They eventually fall out and the holes heal over. Sometimes these holes need to be closed surgically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ——————–<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Getwell Polyclinic & Diagnostic<\/a><\/strong>, best diagnostic centre in Kolkata<\/a><\/strong>, your health is our only priority.
