Question
I’ve had a cold for six days, and I’ve been feeling a stuffy left ear for five days. Can topical medications used to treat allergic rhinitis also treat acute otitis media?
Answer
Acute otitis media often occurs alongside colds or coughs, leading to sudden ear pain. Regarding topical treatments, medications like furazolidone and Nasalang have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, and their ingredients are beneficial for treating ear inflammation.
