[quote=Anonymous]Ibuprofen for pain as needed + a decongestant in case your ears are stopped up. Watch and wait. At this point, no reputable doctor would give you an antibiotic for a possible ear infection; even if you have an infection, it would likely be viral so non-responsive to antibiotics. If your ear starts to hurt a LOT more or if the pain doesn't go away within a few days of your cold ending (assuming that you have continued the decongestants and Advil), then see a doctor. Wouldn't hurt to use a neti pot. Plenty of info available online. --Person who gets ear issues with every cold and now uses a preventive neti pot with great success[/quote]
