When you first put in the drops in the ear it feels like someone punches you in the face and your nose is on fire for a few minutes like you snorted alcohol. But after a few minutes the pain goes away. With in a week my infection cleared up significantly so I will continue to use as they are helping and not in pain anymore and can hear again pretty much.
Prescribed for ear infection at local walk in clinic. Had ear tube but it apparently came out and infection started again. Had used this once before and had a large amount of pain. No different this time. Perhaps even worse. Felt like a drill in my ear. Extremely painful. Had me hopping all over the place for 10 mins.
I have been taking these drops for awhile now. I have an allergic reaction to yeast, which tends to build up in my ears. Taking these drops help control this. I have much faith in it
I had itchy ears & asked my doctor to take a look. My doctor told me not to use qtips to "clean" my ears!! They scratch the surface of the ear canal & cause inflammation & itch. She gave me these drops, & they worked like a charm! No more itch!! I made a pact with my doctor that I'll use qtips only occasionally, & when I use them, I'll limit their use to 1-2 turns.
I used acetic acid otic 2% for ear fungus diagnosed by my last doctor after a previous doctor had tried repeatedly to cure my ear discharge with three types of anti-bacterail drops. The acetic acid cured my ear discharge promptly.
I have a bad inner ear infection. The doctor gave me antiobiotics and this type of ear drops to use. I used them for the first time a few minutes ago. After having them in my ear canal for about 30 seconds I got an earache. After I sat up and some of the drops came out my ear stopped hurting. I'm going to give it a few more tries before I give up. I hate earaches....
I just started using this today. The pain in my ear started on Mon. After using the drops, I did continue to have sharp pains periodically. My ear is more tender and sore to touch then earlier today. Could be just the infection running it's course...
When applied, it hurt terribly. It felt like the worst earache I've ever had or worse. After 4 applications, I could not take the pain anymore and stopped its use.
I get ear infection so easy the last time I had a bacterial infection in my ears from hair dye and I was using qtips because it itches and that made it worst. I didn't get really any side affects from the medication I found relief and smoothing right away. (but my infection was super bad) I used it every 6 hours and but in a cotton swap to hold in the medication I did this for 2 weeks then it was gone. I do now use ear plugs when I take a shower or when ever I am near water. it seems to trigger the infections.
