I supposed to have followed up with an ear nose and throat doctor but i havent because i have no medicaid and no money i have taken all my antibiotics and now im having headaches like everyday i take tylenol it works for a little then it starts hurting again what should i do is this something serious?
Hi Sherry, I understand your difficult situation but as we all know healthy is better than wealthy. There are five stages of the disease, and it is better to stop it asap to have fewer complications like your hearing loss, intracranial extension of the infection etched you finish the treatment with antibiotics as your doctor prescription? Did you have ear discharge or temperature? If the answer is positiver than consulting ENT doctor is a MUST. The disease has severe complications, and it is better to follow up than cure the side effects of the disease. Hope that helped
