My grandpa's over 80 and he's got an ear infection. He's been taking zifi 200 for a couple of days now, but he's started feeling a heaviness in his head, can't hear too well, and there's some watery pus coming from his ear. I'm kind of worried and not sure if we should keep giving him the zifi. What do you think?

Its important to stop Zifi for now and contact his doctor immediately. His symptoms could be related to side effects from the medication, the infection not responding as expected, or other complications, and his doctor can help determine the best course of action.

View allI've had a preauricular sinus infection for years and even had surgery 15 years ago, but it's come back. I've been dealing with this for so long is there any way to finally get rid of it for good?
Yes, it's possible to potentially eliminate a preauricular sinus infection permanently, even after previous surgery, but it may require further surgical intervention and a thorough approach. The key is to ensure complete removal of the sinus tract and any associated cartilage or tissue remnants, as incomplete removal is a major factor in recurrence.
