You are welcome to go see a doctor, but it is possible they will just prescribe you some meclizine, and lots of rest, liquids, and hopefully no antibiotics, because if it is inner ear, it is a viral thing. My husband has had several go-rounds with inner ear, with dizziness, and it just takes a while to get over, which is not pleasant news, I'm sure.

Garlic in olive oil brings some relief, as can heat, but mostly rest, lots of liquids and some meclizine to help with the dizziness is the best route you can go.

Note... you can get meclizine without a prescription, you just have to ask the pharmacist for it, as they don't sell it out on the shelves, but keep it behind the counter. But it does not require a prescription.
Ear infections aren't always viral. Apparently they are usually viral. Thanks for the other info. I didn't know that about meclizine.

For folks that don't NEED a preacher, it's just a small step to where they don't NEED a doctor. Get everything they need on the web.





































J/K!

GO TO THE DOCTOR!

Some people can't afford it, AN, and they only go in emergencies.

I understand and that's a great reason to have a good relationship with a local pharmacist. Remember the pharmacist is the person that EXPLAINS the drugs the doc gives you. Amazing what those folks know and are willing to pass on to a regular customer.
