It is according if it is a middle suppurative otitis ,serous otitis or mucoid otitis or external otitis and how long it has been going in and how severe the infection is.
It it is mild it may be treated with allergy meds. If it is severe, it will usually need antibiotics. If it is external, it would need drops.

  • Family Practitioner

She will need antibiotics. There is more than one option for the antibiotics.
