Ear infections in adults can be serious and should be monitored by an <strong>ENT doctor in West Ashley\u00a0<\/strong>to avoid complications. Because ear infections can be more dangerous for adults, it is important that you recognize the signs and symptoms to get to see an ENT specialist<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ear Infection Symptoms<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An <strong>ENT doctor in West Ashley <\/strong>can diagnose an ear infection by looking into your ear, but we don\u2019t usually get that luxury to do ourselves, so knowing the signs of an infection is vital for adults, especially since the symptoms change based on the location of the infection.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#8211; Inner Ear Infection<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Hearing loss<\/li>\n<li>Nausea<\/li>\n<li>Issue with balance<\/li>\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n<li>Inflammation<\/li>\n<li>Tenderness of the ear<\/li>\n<li>Headaches<\/li>\n<li>Swelling<\/li>\n<li>Fever<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>-Middle Ear Infection <\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>All of the symptoms of an inner ear infection but also:<\/li>\n<li>Clogged ears<\/li>\n<li>Fluid backup or drainage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>-Outer Ear Infection<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Itching<\/li>\n<li>Injuries<\/li>\n<li>Irritation and open wounds<\/li>\n<li>Swelling<\/li>\n<li>Pain<\/li>\n<li>Tenderness<\/li>\n<li>Red skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>When to See an ENT Specialist<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Adult ear infections are serious, and if your symptoms have lasted for more than two to three days, you should visit your primary care physician or urgent care center for treatment. Depending on the severity of your issues, you may be referred to an <strong>ENT doctor in West Ashley <\/strong>for further monitoring.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Treating Ear Infections <\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Some ear infections will clear up on their own and don\u2019t need treatment from an ENT specialist<strong>. <\/strong>If a few days have gone by with no improvement, you may need antibiotics, and ear drops to wipe out the infection. Your <strong>ENT doctor in West Ashley <\/strong>is also available to talk to you about home care methods such as warm compresses and over the counter pain reliever.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in getting your ear infections under control, contact <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalallergyandent.com\/\">National Allergy &amp;
