Now Ears a Big Ol' Problem

Turns out I've got an ear infection from all that swimming in Dubai. How lovely. So now I've been perscribed with eardrops which cause me to spasm from the tickly sensation everytime the green liquid whizzes down my ear canal. Now I can't lean on that ear when I'm trying to get to sleep either as the liquid would drip out, which cuts my potential sleeping positions by about 50%.
