All week my ear has been hurting off and on.
I had an issue with the same Ear a few weeks so I did't think of it too much.
Except last night the pain got alot worse.
So I cleaned it out alittle and took some Childrens Nyquil - yes I am a real light weight a good dose of that stuff puts me right out.
When I woke up this morning the ear was swollen on the outside and my cheek leading up to that ear was warm to the touch - feverish.
And I did have a Fever too.
I called my Doctor and told the Receptionist I had a raging Ear Infection and really hoped they could squeeze me in. She informed me they where completely booked and put me on hold to speak to a Nurse. Who never got on the phone. But thats fine she would have told me to just take Advil anyway. Advil must be a cure all. If it hurts take Advil.. well obviously if I am calling YOU Advil is NOT working.
