what are some ways to get rid of fluid behind eardrum (otitis media)?
I have had antibiotics and tryed swimmers ear but my ear is still feeling like it needs to pop and some hearing loss for about 5 months
----------
have you gone to an ENT? you might have to get tubes in your ear drum as a way to clear the fluid. otitis media and swimmer ear are two different things and both are treated differently... you may need to clarify a little bit more. what type of fluid do you have thin watery fluid or thick pussy fluid? all of these things can affect how you will be treated by a doctor. usually thin watery fluid will clear up on its own, but thick fluid is serious business. as for your eustation tubes... if they aren't opening or closeing properlly you will need to see a doctor. steroid shots and other medications can help with that.
on a different note sometimes chiropractors can help with otitis media if you like alternative forms of medicine. (

How do you cure otitis media?
Hey, I have a ruptured eardrum due to an ear infection. I am currently taking Augmentin, ear drops, and vicodin to deal with it. Its been a few days and the pain is not getting better and I'm getting fevers and I'm finding it hard to move at all. Should i go to my doctor or are these normal side affects?
----------
sounds like you still have an infection. go to your doctor immediately and tell him your symptoms. (

I have otitis media with facial palsy! Has anyone ever recovered from this? How long does this take to heal?
Are you talking about Bells palsy?
I had that, and it took a year to get almost 100% better.
I think it's different for everyone though.
The left side of my face was weak, I couldn't eat or drink without making a mess, it was really embarassing.
I hope it never comes back :( (

Ear drainage – if you see blood or pus draining out of the ear, then it is probably an infection with a ruptured eardrum. DON'T WORRY! These almost always heal just fine, and once the eardrum ruptures the pain subsides. (

what effect does an elevated temperature have on other vital signs in otitis media?
Usually when you have a high temperature, your heart rate is also higher, and so is your respiratory rate, because your body has to work harder. And becuase you are uncomfortable, your blood pressure can get pretty high, too. (
