Is it normal that after a 7-day treatment with the Biaxin antibiotic, my ear is still very blocked following an otitis with perforated tympanum? I finish antibiotics and I still have a throat too. Do I have to see my doctor again?

Hello, the feeling of having a "plugged" ear could last a few more days without being worrying. We must know that once the eardrum is perforated, some people feel this until the eardrum heals. Biaxin usually treats this type of infection well. If the fever were to return, I invite you to consult. Do you have an appointment with a doctor in the next 4 to 6 weeks to check that your eardrum is healed?
