Ear problems making anxiety worst.

At first I was put on amoxicillin for ear infection, finished the course and went back to the doctor last Monday because still having pain. She looked in my ears and said the infection is cleared and the pain and fullness is from a blocked tube. She told me to stay on my flonase every day and take claritin. I finally took the claritin this morning cause the sharp ear pain and fullness. I still feel the sharp pain once in awhile and the fullness. This is causing me great anxiety, I don't like the strange feeling.

Hi DS,

I am sorry you've been sick.:( Illness is definitely a trigger for anxiety! Especially pain and feeling 'off' in the head,as happens with an ear infection.:(

Stay hydrated (to keep congestion loose)...and rest, rest, rest!

Sending understanding and well wishes your way!

S.C.
