Chronic Ear Infection
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
It is worth seeking care when an ear infection does not fully resolve or recurs again and again. A chronic ear infection is a persistent inflammation or infection of the ear, usually of the middle ear, that keeps going or repeats over time.
Common symptoms: Ear discharge, mild discomfort or pain, a feeling of a plugged ear and, at times, decreased hearing.
When should you see a doctor? If the discharge, discomfort, or hearing problems persist, it is time for an evaluation.
Which specialist treats it? The otolaryngologist is the specialist who evaluates and follows up on ear conditions. Addressing an infection that does not subside in time with the help of a professional contributes to protecting your hearing.
