How does MinuteClinic treat an Earache?

The cause of the ear pain will determine the treatment to be recommended. If it is from a bacterial infection, it will be treated with antibiotics that are swallowed or by drops that go in the ear. This treatment is for severe infections. If the cause is from excessive ear wax, it can be treated by removing the wax. Ear wax removal can be done by a MinuteClinic provider if not solved by wax softening ear drops.
