Fungal Ear Infection (Otomycosis) Causes, Symptoms & Treatment || Ear Infection Treatment

[@albie77]

I want to thank you for this video. My mother was diagnosed with a fungal infection and it's been causing her so much pain. Her gp wanted to start with a cleaning but she refused because she is in so much pain and did not want any invasive procedures. The doctor was impatient and did not explain the need for the cleaning. Last night I showed her this video and now she understands why cleaning is essential for treatment. She has an appointment with an ENT on Monday and has resolved to allow the full treatment, including cleaning. She was so scared but now feels comfortable and secure. Thank you!

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Thank you for your kind words of appreciation. I am very happy that you took the time to tell me how my video help you. The purpose of making my videos is fully accomplished if even one patient benefits from them. Knowing that my videos are helping the people out there encourages me to work even more passionately.

Very informative video thanks I myself suffered from a fungal ear infection last week. I used to itch alot even with my wireless earbuds. That probably caused my ear infection. I had pain one night and the next day i hoped it will go away on its own. But once i had temeprature above 100. I realised its time to visit the ENT specialist. My ear was almost completely blocked . It was so painful. What my dr did was a wonderful thing. He instantly put a bandage with antifungal cream in my ear so that my ear can stay open and i feel a relieve from a closed ear canal. He said let it stay inside for 4 days and same instructions as yours to keep it dry. He also gave me eaedrops which are antibiotics tobramycin woth dexamethasone. After two days i feel so much fine AlhumduliAllah. Thanks god. Lesson is we should not put pur fingers or any object for itching inside our ears. It is so painful if we develop infection..

Thanks for posting your story

Are you completely cured? This is the first time I have been infected with this fungus and I felt panicked as if I would lose my ear completely.

[@mschoirtchr]

Thank you so very much! I have been plagued by ear trouble for over a year now, and now I believe that it's been a fungal infection that keeps returning, and it has not been diagnosed and treated appropriately until now. Hoping that, moving forward, things improve greatly!

Thank you doctor for the advice so wa should not even remove the discharge that is coming out of an ear

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Fungal debris should be cleaned by the ENT specialist in the OPD clinic. Self cleaning of ear discharge manytimes can cause further introduction of infection in the ear.

Hi Doctor, I recently got my ears cleaned out, had immediate relief too. I was also prescribed Fluconazole ear drops, a day or 2 after starting the drops, the tinnitus and severe pain returned. I was so scared I’ve discontinued the drops for a little over a day. Is this normal? My next appointment at the ENT clinic is 2 days.

[@surender_1234-zle]

Very nice 👍👍👍👍

[@yynxbud6739]

Great work Sir. Is there any difference in the effectiveness between ear irrigation and ear suction for fungal infection?

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Ear irrigation if done should be cleared properly as if the ear remians wet after irrigation that can cause fungus to again grow in the humid atmosphere inside the ear canal. Betadine wash and suctioning is done many times to clear the fungus from the ear which is a great way not just to clean the fungus from the ear but also prevent the recurremce of the fungus. But the basic gist is that ear should not be left wet.

[@yynxbud6739]

@@drsharadENTvideos Alright. Many thanks Sir

[@cynthiamadrigal269]

Hello, 2 years ago I started suffering ear infections, I was diagnosed with fungal infection. Now that I don’t wet my ears my infections have decreased but I have severe itching. My ENT just cleans and has prescribed Fluconazol oil which does nothing. I stopped going to ENT cause I feel like it’s no help. 😢

[@drsharadENTvideos]

To prevent Recurrent fungal infection.....Keep you ear dry.....Do not let water enter you ear while bathing or swimming....Do not scratch you ear with Q-tips/dirty hands.....If dandruff in scalp is present---get it treated You can continue with Fluconazole. Make sure that your blood sugar is not high because Diabetics also get recurrent fungal infection of ear. I believe that as per your history that you have provided and that I have not examined you ear ....this is the best help I could offer.

[@kflounge]

Hello Doctor. I hope you see this cause I need advice. I have suffered from bacterial ear infections for years now. Permanent tinnitus on both ears but more noticeable on the right ear. No treatment worked for the tinnitus. I would use ear drops earlier prescribed by ENT doctor to stop any itchiness on both ears if I suspect early occurrence of infection and sysptoms would subside. Recently, the ear drop didn't work and my left ear felt filled up with hearing loss. ENT doctor told me I have fungi infection on both ears but heavy on the left. He had a nurse clean out both ears with warm saline water and prescribed antifungal cream. I immediately regained my hearing during the ear flushing and tinnitus on left ear reduced. But a day later after I started applying the antifungal cream, the fullness gradually intensified and hearing loss with tinnitus became louder. I have tried calling my doctor but its a Saturday and he is busy. What went wrong and what do I do?

[@drsharadENTvideos]

I believe there is nothing wrong.....the doctor is guiding you correctly. The ointment might have filled up your ear giving the sensation of ear fullness. You need to just keep going up for the follow-up visits with your ENT specialist

[@kflounge]

@@drsharadENTvideos Hello Doctor. Thank you for the reply. The ENT doctor texted later that day for me to see him. He had to flush out my left ear again. Like you said, he told me the cream I applied had blocked it. But I think I also saw discharge. He also noticed before flushing that my ear left ear was wet. He told be my left ear drum was retracted and there was no air coming out from my eustachian tube. He said I should stop the biocoten and prescribed sinufed and gentamicin ear drop. He was doubting if its a fungal infection. I am confused because this very left ear keeps getting wet and making me uncomfortable. I don't want it to get blocked again. This morning, I noticed the right ear is showing same symptoms( wetness and a little dull hearing) but not as bad as the left ear. I am to see him after one week but I feel I need to do a culture and sensitivity test before then. I don't know what to do. I have been chewing gum and blowing air out of my ears as he adviced.

Hello doctor i recent visited ent specialist he took me to the ot with him with the help of some modern method my ears started appearing in the screen but he didnt clean it he used so other techniques like he put many things inside there was no pain happening while he was doing that then he added cotton and put one thread inside my ear then after 3 days he removed it so this is proper treatment or not ???he gave me beclamethasone clotrimazole drop and told me to use that for 4 time a day so this is a proper treatment or not ???

how did you used drop when there's already cotton in your ear

[@infopioneersinnovators4124]

Dear Dr. Shared, greetings from LA. Could you, please, answer my questions. In January I ended up at the urgent care. I was told I had both my eardrums erupted. Plus, ears infection. They gave me Amox oral antibiotics. Short after, one eardrum healed by itself and in one ear the infection was gone. Then I went to see an ENT. This doctor did not take a swab to send to the Lab, instead she assumed it was a bacteria infection and treated me with Ciprodex ear drops. 4 months later, the infection got worse. I complained. She then took a swab and sent it to Lab. Turned out I had a fungus infection. She immediately switched med to Clotrimazole ear drops. I am still suffering. A lot of fluid is coming out of my ear, intense itchiness… during this 7 months she applied a purple treatment (2 times) inside my ear. Are you familiar with that ? Another ENT wanted to prescribe me Power CSF and No liquid ear drops like she did. Would that be better maybe, considering I have a big whole next to my fungus infection? I’m really concern. I’m afraid that if I don’t get rid of this infection the puss can go inside my brain? Last night, in desperation i warmed up some salt and gently place it next to my infected ear, I heard that could help a fungus infection. After a while the itchiness stop, I was able to sleep. I will visit a new, 3rd ENT. Please share your thoughts, thank you for trying to help us here and God bless your heart!

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Hi.....i have read your history.... And there is nothing that u need to worry about. Every ENT that has prescribed you medicines from Amox to ciprodex to clotriamazole, to purple thing (which cud be Gentian violet). Everything is something or the other that is routinely used by ENT surgeon. Except the salt thing that u did....rest everything thing is fine. Pus will not enter your brain till you get a disease of ear by the name of cholesteatoma.....and also not every cholesteatoma case enters brain. So don't worry......keep following up with ENT specialist.....and try to stick to one till the time that ENT specialist himself refers you to bigger center/hospital. Two different ENT docs can differ atleast 30-40% in their treatment in treating the same disease.....it's very normal. So don't worry and keep following up with the ENT specialist

[@poojajoseph2515]

In case of kids age 3.5yrs fungal infection diagnost so will ENT suggest medication or removal is necessary in first step

[@drsharadENTvideos]

A kid of 3.5 years of age if cooperates during ear cleaning ......fungus should ideally be always cleaned. In case he/she is moving too much during cleaning of the ear, then risk of injury to ear canal skin and ear drum increases....hence it is not done in such scenario.

It could be the problem in the skin of the ear canal....which comes under the domain of Dermatologist.

Hello Dr Sharad. Thank you for your video. I’ve had ear pain for 3 months that has not cleared up after 3 courses of antibiotics and steroid drops. It started when I laid down with wet hair in May. I’m now realising it’s probably a fungal infection, but my dr has never suggested it could be this and just kept giving antibiotics. My ear hurts so badly I have to take pain relief every 4 hours. What kind of drops should I ask my Dr for? They’ve referred me to an ear specialist but I won’t get an appointment for months. I’m in the UK. I developed a calcification on my eardrum over this time. What options are there to treat that and could that be the cause of my pain rather than a fungal infection? My ear does itch a lot. But not constantly. Thank you.

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Ma'am....a case like yours need a proper examination of the ear. The most important thing in your ear is to confirm the diagnosis that whether it's ear's fungal infection or its just eardrum infection which has gone to the Mastoid bone causing such pain that u require pain killer every 4 hourly. Calcification of the ear drum is called myringosclerosis.....it is usually not considered serious.

[@sujithgurrala1312]

I used candibiotic drops,otolin drops.but didn't cured! What should I do

[@drsharadENTvideos]

U need to get your ears checked and let the ENT doctor check your ear drum and then prescribe u the ear drops. Fungus in the ears need to be cleaned first

Thank you Sir for a very detailed explanation. I have a fungal infection and the ear drops I am using just won’t go in, it feels like it’s blocked or something from going through, do you know why? Everytime I use drops in my ear, after 3-5 minutes it comes out again. I don’t know why.

[@drsharadENTvideos]

If your ear drum is intact and there is no hole in the ear drum.......the extra ear drops will come out. Also, i would advise you to go for a proper physical examination of the ear drum by an ENT specialist

I am living in Mumbai, it is a very humid area. Since last year i am getting infected time n again. I have already got a treatment thrice, is there any permanent solution to stop this?

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Fungal infection has some cause to it. It cud be high blood sugar as fungal infection frequently occurs in diabetics. It cud be the dandruff in the scalp. It cud be the constant scratching of ear canal with so-called "clean" Q-tips/cottton buds. (as we think thatvthey are clean coz we have taken out from a closed box, but most of the times they are the main culprit behind recurrent ear fungal infection). It cud be the wetness in the ear. It cud be frequent entry of water in ears while bathing or swimming. It could be scratching the ear with dirty fingers. There will be some cause and the most common are mentioned above. Kahin naa kahin choti hi sahi but laparwahi hoti hai tabhi fungus kaan me lagti hai. Permanent solution is to avoid any of the above-mentioned habit (if you have it) and get a proper cleaning of the ear canal done by an ENT specialist. You may require to visit an ENT specialist atleast 2-3 times for ear cleaning as many times the ear fungal infection might be very stubborn. Once the ears are absolutely cleaned of the fungus the antifungal ear drops will do the rest of the work.

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Baar baar kaan me fungus lagne ke kai reasons ho sakte hain. Jo sabse common causes hain, wo hain -- 1) High blood sugar. (High blood sugar ke liye Diabetologist se milein aur blood sugar control karein. ) 2) Sar me dandruff hona. (Sar me dandruff hai toh Skin specialist se milein aur sar ke dandruff ko theek karein.) 3) Kaan me nahate hue paani jaana. (Nahaate hue kaan me cotton lagaein taakin kaan ke ander paani naa jaae) 4) Kaan me Cotton bud, gande haathon, gaadi ki chaabi, machis ki tilli, etc cheezon se khujana. (In cheezon se door rahein) 5) Kaan ke parde me chhed hona. (Kaan ke parde me chhed hai ke nahi ye koi bhi ENT specialist aapka kaan check kar ke aapko bata dega aur dawai shuru kar dega.)

Thankyou sir, Well explained. I have otomycosis from a week now, have been seeing ent and almost same treatment is going on as you told. I have one query, as my eardrum is mildy effected as told my ent, so whenever I put drops in my ears, they go to my throat and it burns like hell for 1 minute. I do have bad tonsils too. So is it normal for drops to go in throat and burn, my throat also hurta for sometime. My ent said its fine, but saw on internet that its not right, if eardrum is affected. Please revert. 😢

[@drsharadENTvideos]

Ma'am.....the ear drops when goes from the eardrum to the throat is an indirect indication that there might be a hole in the eardrum. When there is an acute infection in the ear drum, then sometimes it happens that there occurs a very small pinpoint or pinhead size hole in the eardrum, which heals by itself once the ear infection is treated. This small pinpoint hole is sometimes missed during the ear examination as this hole gets hidden behind the redness and the swelling of the eardrum.
