I went to the doctor with a bunch of buildup in my outer ear. She told me I wasn't cleaning my ears well enough and gave me a big syringe for use with water.
Of course, she had misdiagnosed me and I had to go to another doctor to treat the infection with antibiotics.
- Scoundreller 11y agoCan we really know if doctor #1 was wrong in not prescribing antibiotics?
- marshray 11y agoYeah, I had been putting up with a bad external infection for months. I had been cleaning it out regularly, but held off a few days so the doctor could see what was going on. It started clearing up after just 48 hours with topical antibiotics.
