Who you’ll see in Cobham
About ear infection
Seeing a GP in Cobham means an ear examination in clinic, or a video review of your symptoms, to establish whether it's middle-ear or outer-ear. Worth booking if ear pain has lasted more than three days, there's any discharge, a high temperature, persistent hearing loss, or repeated infections. Where antibiotics or ear drops are needed, they're arranged with your pharmacy the same day. Full detail is on our national page at /conditions/ear-infection/.
About ear infections
Ear infections can affect the middle ear (behind the eardrum) or the outer ear canal, with different underlying causes for each. Expect ear pain, a sense of blockage, mild hearing loss and sometimes discharge or a mild fever. Children often get middle-ear infections following a cold, while outer-ear infections are more often linked to moisture or irritation getting into the canal.
