So guys, remember how I said some stuff didn't go well irl lately? I'm gonna elaborate a bit on that.

3 weeks ago I got an ear infection, the equivalent to athlete's foot but for swimmers and got that checked up on the same week. Then 2 weeks ago I had to work feeling a little itchy and uncomfortable but I felt well enough for it to not be trouble: It was mostly just itchy after taking the meds for my ear. Last week it was solved and I went to get my ear cleaned and I felt nice for a couple of days.

Thing is, I went to swim again after that, and on Monday I started feeling pain in my ear again; during the noon and afternoon I thought it was just some water inside my ear so I disregarded it and continued my day as usual but around nightime it got so bad I just knew I wouldn't be able to sleep.

At midnight, I decided to go to Emergency Room since even after taking some Paracetamol it didn't get any better, and it was painful enough for me to not be able to work either. I got told that I basically injured the inside of my ear while swimming and I got External Otitis.

They injected me some painkillers and such which really helped me but as I'm writing the post, it seems like I might need to go back if it doesn't get any better; this at least until Friday where I get properly checked up by a specialist (I don't know the name for ear doctor in English, sorry).

What I wanted to say it's: If the doctor doesn't give me a good way to deal with this, I think I actually be unable to work until this is solved; I hate to say it but when the pain gets sharp, it gets SHARP.

I really hate that this happened this month and technically I could go and spend 60-100 everyday to get injected the real painkillers until my ear gets healed enough so I don't need them anymore so I can work on the game, but I know that'd be irresponsible.

I'm sorry for this news after the last ones were not so good either, I'll keep you guys updated on how this goes on Friday-Saturday but for now I just need to make it clear that today things doesn't seem very good.

I'm praying for things to be get better enough so I can work but I really can't guarantee anything right now.

Sorry for the bad news again, I'll try to get as much work done as possible even with the ear/head pain but I really can't focus at all...

Oh, I already got meds from the specialist, I just need to write the post about it; thanks, things are going better but not as fast as I would like to... I'll try posting the update on the situation tomorrow.

dont worry. take your time to get well. you can try dexketoprofen, is a stronger painkiller than paracetamol. in my country it cost like 1 dolla or 2 if you buy enantyum ( the good brand, but all brands work the same). i hope you get better

Mario Villeda

Will do, at least for a bit; I'll be writing the post with an update on this later

Axl

I swear, the only day I go without them this happens ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Axl

Well, it doesn't seem like anything too serious for now, need to make the post about it later; I'll have to take it easy for a bit though, not TOO long, but long enough to be annoying

Axl

I had one when I was very young that almost left me deaf. Take your time Iโ€™d rather a week or two of delay rather than you compromise your health in anyway as that would probably cause later delays maybe even an indefinite one. Hope you get over this quick

Mike

I hope you get well soon. I think it would be best for you to buy a pair of swimming earplugs next time you want to go swimming to prevent ear infections

ๆ˜Š ๆจ

Sorry to hear that, Take a rest for now, it's more important to recover your health take lots of care.

CyanPHZ

Thanks, praying for that myself...

Axl

I'll try resting as much as possible, I'll still try to get art done tho... I was so close to getting all done this month...

Axl

Yeah, thanks, it's pretty annoying but at least I'm managing better thanks to the temporary meds; hopefully I get tips on Friday to prevent this from happening again in the future...

Axl

I'll try, it's hard considering how close I was to getting all art done...

Axl

I was so close to getting it done tho...

Axl

Thanks, I'll try to eat and sleep as much as possible to speed it up

Axl

Well, the pain is way more managable but still to early to say for sure if it's getting better, thanks anyways! Yeah, this sucks lmao

Axl

Well, the ear fungus comes back once every few years, the ear wound is new; hopefulyl I get tips to avoid it.

Axl

Sucks that happend, hoping for a speedy recovery

Komrad Nep

I suggest you lay off working for a while and focus on getting better, we can wait for as long as you need, wish you a speedy recovery!

QuadX1987

i feel your pain, i get an abnormal amount of ear infections and one of my ears is mostly deaf from it, shit hurts like hell. take care of yourself please

idkaname

+1 To all the thoughts above, take your time and focus on getting better.

Invictus

Just take your time, we can always wait. Your health is far more important than a porn game, right?

NutleR

Take as long as you need. I'm sure we are all happy to wait until your healthy. Thank you for the updates and wish you a speedy recovery!

HalfRidge

Hope you feel better, the doctor title youโ€™re looking for if I understand the situation is an ENT (Ear,nose,throat) specialist. Ear infections are the worst.

Dynamite

Take your time. Your health is important, and you can't work in good conditions if your body isn't at its best. I hope you'll heal fast and that you won't catch that again in the future, seems like a real pain... I personally appreciate that you keep us updated despite that โœŒ๏ธ
