I have pain in my left ear and used Ciplox Eye/Ear Drops along with the painkiller Diclowin 650 Tablet for relief. Was this the right treatment? The pain has stopped now, but what should I do if it returns at night?
Using Ciplox Eye/Ear Drops (ciprofloxacin) and Diclowin 650 Tablet (paracetamol) may have provided temporary relief, but this is not the correct treatment unless a bacterial ear infection is confirmed. Ciprofloxacin (an antibiotic) should not be used without a doctor?s advice, as unnecessary use may cause antibiotic resistance and will not help if the cause is viral or non-infectious. If the pain returns at night, avoid self-medicating and consult an ENT specialist to determine the exact cause and get appropriate treatment.
