Grrr! I had an ear and eye infection two and a half weeks ago, so went to Urgent Care to get what turned out to be three medications for the problem. They helped both situations but my left ear is still plugged.
The doc told me to come back in a week if I didn't feel better. I never felt bad, really: the ear infection didn't hurt even though I had a very slight fever and lots of ear drainage; but this ongoing clogged ear situation is driving me up the wall and making me feel a little off-balance, so it's time to return and see if I need something that'll address it. It's more than a little annoying: by the end of every day, it feels like it's just about to resolve itself, but it doesn't--and by morning we're back at square one: very, very plugged. Grrr... I'm tired of waiting for it to unplug of its own accord.
I think the outer ear infection may have become an inner ear infection (or impaction). My temperature remains normal, so that's good. Going to the doctor is not my favorite thing to do, but unless things turn around precipitously, I'll go again. It shouldn't take long if I can get right in... What a drag.
