Ear drum symptoms and conditions

I am 19 male and i finished my z-pack medication two days ago and i still have a ringing in both of my ears. I can't hear anything out of both ears except if you yell into my ear. I took it because my ear drum ruptured and i had an ear infection in both ears. Now what? I guess this will last up to 10 days, but i am scared to see if this is normal or not. I didn't feel any different when i was taking the pills, just a fever every now and then and a headache once or twice (nothing worth complaining)...but i hope i get better soon because i am in college and i can't hear what my professors are saying..lol

i'm glad i found this site. I had fluid in my ear drum. went to quick care and they gave me a prescription for levaquin 750mg. On the fourth day i woke up not able to close my hands. The pain and stiffness in my joints was severe. unable to hold on to anything. I also have pain in every joint in my body or it feels like it. What can i do to get this stuff out of my body? I ache all over. Need some feed back, please help if you have info on this.

as an ent doctor with 36 years of apppling cresylate to infected ears i can tell you that the product is unsurpassed in treatment of fungal external ear problems. some stinging is common if the ear is badly infected. very severe pain usually incicates a perforation of the ear drum, especially if the pain is felt down into the neck area. it only takes a couple of applications to do the job and if it is used excessively it is very caustic to the ear and , as noted in the other posts, to the skin surrounding the ear. take care with this very potent drug.

This was given to me to help clear up congestant and fluid on the ear drum. This drug after 5 days made me feel like everything in me had stopped working. It felt like my heart was faintly beating. It was scary. I stopped taking this and will never take it again.
