How long does an inner ear infection last?

How long does an adult ear infection last without antibiotics. PLEASE HELP?

  • Its saturday so my doctor is closed. Im sure that i have an ear infection, im experiencing pain, stuffiness, itching, burning, discharge. So my question is. How long will the symptoms last without having treatment/antibiotics.

  • Answer:

    You might check some of the herbal sites for natural antibiotics that could relieve things a bit. You might try chewing garlic cloves, compressing with pressed garlic, onion or other things to draw it out. I keep LDM, oil of oregano and cayenne pepper around for things like this, stuff from the herb store. As to how long the symptoms will last without treatment? A very long time as they are not dependent upon the antibiotics for survival.

You probably need antibiotics, do you not have an urgent care close to where you live? It would be best to be diagnosed and treated appropriately. Without treatment, the eardrum can rupture and cause excruciating pain.

Until you die... or go to the doctor tomorrow...
