Can chronic external otitis be cured with boric acid ear drops?

Patient's question:

Recently, Dad has been complaining that his ears hurt a lot, and sometimes I can't even hear what others are saying clearly. So I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination, and only then did I find out that he had chronic otitis externa. I was told that this inflammation can be treated with boric acid ear drops.

Doctor's answer:

According to the description, if you have chronic otitis externa, you can use boric acid ear drops for ear drops. Additionally, under the guidance of a doctor, using sensitive antibiotics and anti-allergic medications can help promote the complete recovery of otitis externa. In daily life, you must never dig your ear canal randomly to avoid worsening the symptoms of the ear canal. Avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent congestion in the ear canal.
