Full transcript
Tell me exactly what's going on with your ear today — is it painful, blocked, itchy, or has your hearing changed?
Doctor, desde el fin de semana en la playa de Bondi siento el oído izquierdo tapado, como si tuviera algodón adentro, pero no me duele.
Have you noticed any hearing loss, ringing, discharge, dizziness, or pain, and roughly how long has this been happening?
Sí, escucho un poco menos y a veces un zumbido leve, pero no ha salido ningún líquido ni me mareo, y esto lleva como una semana.
I can see a significant build-up of wax blocking your ear canal completely — nothing serious, but we'll need to treat it properly here at Bankstown Medical Centre.
Entiendo, doctora. ¿Eso se trata aquí mismo hoy, o tengo que ir a otro lugar para que me limpien el oído?
I'll prescribe softening ear drops for you — use them twice daily for three days before we try to flush the wax out safely.
De acuerdo. ¿Debo aplicarme las gotas acostado, y cuántas gotas exactamente debo poner cada vez que las use?
Don't use the drops if you've ever had a perforated eardrum, grommets, or ear surgery — otherwise, tilt your head sideways and apply five drops each time.
Nunca me han operado el oído ni tengo tímpano perforado, así que puedo usarlas tranquilo. ¿Puedo nadar mientras hago este tratamiento?
Avoid swimming or inserting anything into your ear until it fully clears, and come back if your hearing hasn't improved within five days.
Entendido, doctora, no voy a nadar ni a meter nada en el oído. Si no mejora dentro de esos cinco días, vuelvo a la clínica sin falta.
