[QUOTE="Helsin, post: 741836, member: 103143"] Just seen this thread. I have a lot of experience with middle ear infections - long before I got diabetes. Doctor said it was eczema and used to give me Losarten Vioform drops. I got very fed up of them and eventually came up with a maintenance programme that helps me a lot. Never let your ears get wet and then dry in the air without cream. Even better, make sure that you have put a little cream in them before showering, bathing or swimming. I use either hydrocortisone or Sudocrem. Either works. I imagine that the skin flakes if the cream is not used and that the flakes fall further into the ear canal and become a source of infection. I think it is at least a couple of years since I last had a problem with them. [/QUOTE]
