  • Antibiotics when appropriate
  • Ear drops for outer ear infections
  • Earwax removal if buildup is causing symptoms
  • Follow-up care for repeated infections

Do all ear infections need antibiotics?
No. Some ear infections improve without antibiotics. A provider can determine whether antibiotics, ear drops, pain relief, or monitoring is the right next step.
You may not know without an exam. Ear pain can come from infection, wax, swimmer's ear, pressure behind the eardrum, jaw pain, throat issues, or eustachian tube dysfunction — and the treatment is different for each.
No. Swimmer's ear affects the outer ear canal. A middle ear infection happens behind the eardrum. They can feel similar, but the treatment is different.
Yes. Virtual care may help with symptoms and next steps. Some cases still need an in-person ear exam — your provider will let you know.
