I have had ear pain since last Thursday morning. No fever, but constant pain. Have been using ear drop antibiotics since Thursday with no improvement. Is it unusual to have ear pain for over 4 days? What could be the reason for the antibiotics not working at all? I am 71 years old and have a history of ICU stay due to a blackout with blood in the brain and sprained back muscles, but mostly manageable before the ear pain.
