Earache in Fulham

Anyone aged one to seventeen with moderate or severe earache not eased by pain relief qualifies. If you are outside this age range, our team can still offer advice on earwax removal or OTC treatments. We’re happy to explain your options and refer you on if required.

You can expect the consultation to last 10–15 minutes. This covers symptom discussion, ear examination, and advice. If we supply medication, the process may take a few extra minutes while the prescription is prepared. You can wait in our seating area – no appointment means flexible timing.

You can but it's not required. Just walk in to Fulham Palace Pharmacy during our opening hours. If you prefer, you can call ahead or book online. Walk-ins are welcome, and we aim to see you as soon as possible.

Yes, we record the consultation on your NHS record so your GP is kept informed. This helps maintain continuity of care. The information includes your symptoms, treatment supplied, and any referrals made.

Our pharmacist assesses whether antibiotics are clinically appropriate. If so, they supply them under NHS guidelines. If antibiotics aren’t needed, they recommend suitable pain-relief measures and advise on home care to prevent complications.

If symptoms persist or worsen within 48 hours of treatment, return for a follow-up. We’ll reassess and update your care plan. If the issue is more serious, we refer you to a GP or hospital for further tests.
