An intense earache, can you prescribe me something?

35-year-old woman4 years ago

I am in good health, I had 5 days of mild sore throat, 2 days of clear runny nose, 3 days of congested nose with greenish yellow secretions, 2 days of sinus pain with eye migraine, and boom last night at 1am the intense earache woke me up.

Hello Ma'am,

Unfortunately, no. The pharmacist cannot do anything in such a case:(

You really need to consult a doctor to receive antibiotics.

I recommend you to consult via Bonjour Santé during the weekend if it is impossible for you to see a doctor otherwise.

Good day :)

Alexandre
