Ear Infection Treatment in Johor Bahru

Jangkitan Telinga

Ear infections (otitis media and otitis externa) are common in Malaysia, particularly in children and swimmers. The tropical humidity promotes bacterial and fungal growth in the ear canal. Untreated ear infections can lead to hearing loss, eardrum perforation, and spread of infection to surrounding tissues.

Treatment at Klinik Muhibbah

Our doctors use an otoscope to examine the ear canal and eardrum. Treatment depends on the type — antibiotic ear drops for outer ear infections, oral antibiotics for middle ear infections, and antifungal drops for fungal infections. We also safely remove earwax buildup that may be contributing to symptoms.
