Earache

[fruitsalad]

Woke up this morning with an earache and a sore throat is there anything I can put in my ear for the pain?

Plenty of things, but nothing that would help.

Take ibuprofen 400mgms as and when necessary.

If I remember correctly, although you had Ulcerative Colitis, you were going to give ibuprofen a trial with your meals.

No that's not me sqad I do suffer with ibs though, I have been taking paracetamol and inbrofen and it's ok until the painkillers wear off then it's back with a vengance

Keep on with the medication as it is almost certainly referred pain from the throat and not from the ear.
