Private treatment for acute otitis externa

Our Acute Otitis Externa Treatment Service provides fast, effective relief for ear canal inflammation and infection (commonly known as swimmer’s ear).

 

Through a private consultation, our clinician will assess your symptoms and, if appropriate, prescribe Otomize ear spray — a trusted, combination treatment that reduces pain, swelling, and infection.

 

About Otitis Externa

Otitis externa is an inflammation or infection of the outer ear canal, often caused by water exposure, excessive ear cleaning, or irritation from ear devices.

 

Common symptoms include:

Ear pain or tenderness

Itchiness and redness

Swelling or discharge from the ear

Temporary hearing loss due to blockage

If left untreated, the infection can worsen and cause significant discomfort.

 

About Otomize Ear Spray

Otomize is a prescription-only medicine that contains:

Neomycin – an antibiotic that treats bacterial infection

Dexamethasone – a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling

Acetic acid – helps restore the ear’s natural acidic environment, discouraging bacterial growth

​

This combination provides both antibacterial and anti-inflammatory action to quickly relieve pain and clear infection.
