Asked for male, 18 years old from Mumbai

I had a hole in my ear canal so used ciplox-d drops in my ears but unfortunately it formed a hard white layer on my eardrum and blocked it. Now even earwax has made up a pile on it. I'm not able to hear properly now. What should I do. However a doctor replied me and recommended soliwax ear drops for me. But I want to ask whether these ear drops can remove the hard white layer formed due to ciplox-d?

Dear lybrate-user, first of all the hard white layer is due to chronic inflammation/infection. And not because of the ear drop, which is given prior to surgery of ear which is the standard treatment in such cases.
