I was diagnosed with swimmers ear on Friday, and ever since I started taking the antibiotics my ears have been itching like crazy, to the extent where it's kept me up all night. Could I be allergic to the medicine? I've had swimmers ear before and usually it's a relief to out in the drops, but now it makes them feel worse.

I would certainly phone the doctor, at the very least, about this. Perhaps where you are , there is a phone in "help line" where you can talk to a nurse about this to see if this is common. You can talk to your druggist to see if this is an expected side effect of the medication. If you are reluctant to go to the doctor again because of the cost, try the other options first, but if it continues, go back to your doctor ASAP. I've had swimmers ear once, and there was no reaction at all. I am pretty sure this is some sort of allergy. If it was me, I would discontinue the medication, and phone the doctor.
Try the Hyland's earache drop it also calm the ears for cold and flu, swimmer's ear, and allergy. Also it soothes itchy ears.
