really terrible and stupid "advise" (learn to spell). Ear "clogges" (learn how to spell) cannot be solved with drops. There is a membrane that separates the outer from inner ear, called the ear drum. Drops will not enter the middle ear....and will no way aid in draining the fluids, which exit through the eustachian tube into the nose. These typically swell after a cold and trap the fluid produced during the infection in the middle ear. It typically clears itself out after a few days after the inflammation subsides...Anonymous got drops a few days after, its coincidence. The pharmacist just knows people want drugs like candy and won't settle for "just wait." Decongestants may help reduce nasal swelling but are of little benefit in draining fluid from eustachion tubes. Because it often follows a cold, antibiotics are ineffective...unless its known to be bacterial. If it does not clear up after waiting they may be given antibiotics anyway and possibly oral steroids, as bacterial infection is likely in stagnant mucous.
