Medical Therapy

Putting warmth on the ear may help relieve discomfort.

Painkillers such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen may be used to relieve pain.

Antibiotics (oral or ear drops) may be used to prevent or treat an infection.

Keep the ear clean and dry while it is healing

Place cotton balls in the ear while showering or shampooing to prevent water from entering the ear. Avoid swimming or putting your head underneath the water.

Sometimes a patch may be placed over the eardrum to speed healing.
