HI -

My bf has had a history of chronic ear infections. LIke several per year. This last September he had a severe one that got really infected and he had to spend about 3 days in the hospital.

He has never regained hearing in his left ear....it still feels pluged

Last tuesday....he started to get an infection in his right ear. Immediately he went to the doctor. And on Tuesday he was put on Amoxicillan. That said, both his ears are plugged up and he can't hear a thing. He says it feels like his head is in a fish bowl.

It is Saturday and he has sporadice pangs of ear pain every two hours that last a minute. But he isn't in the excruciating pain he was in September. That said, he still can't hear a thing...his ears are clearly plugged up.

Liquid is coming out. He has a low grade fever, like 99.5

Given his plugged up ears for the past two days, should he call his doctor immediately?

I find his doctor isn't aggressive. He hasn't heard anything out of his left ear for three months...isn't his doctor afraid he is going to go deaf?
