Suggest remedy for ear pain in a diabetic
Patient: I ve had severe ear pain that started yesterday, today I can t seem to catch my breath and I am having pain under my right breast. Pain is worse if I move or try to get a deep breath. I have used my proair inhaler and some ear drops with no relief. Temp is 100.8under toung.. I have asthma and I m a brittle diabetic glucose is 212 .my question is what is wrong with me.? Doctor: HI, thanks for using healthcare magicEar pain can be due to an infection in the ear , this would cause a fever and can be associated with chest infections as well.Infection would cause the blood sugar to increase.Pain in the chest on movement and taking a deep breath may be due to muscle injury, pleuritis (inflammation of the lining around the lung), costochondritis.It would be best to see your doctor to be treated.I hope this helps
