Ear Swab

Ear Swab

These can be useful for troublesome outer ear infections known as ‘otitis externa’. If a quick course of treatment fails to work or otitis externa becomes a recurrent problem, you may want to take an ear swab to find out what type of infection is causing the problem.

How our kits work:

All tests are shipped using first class post, and dispatched the same day if ordered before 1pm. Shipping is free to the mainland UK.

Our packaging is discreet, and your order will be displayed as FMD LTD on your credit or debit card statement.

Follow the instructions in your test kit. Enclose your sample in the prepaid envelope to return your sample to us for testing.

We test your samples in our state-of-the-art UK-based laboratory and identify any microbes or bacteria that might be causing your UTI.

It takes 7 days to thoroughly test your sample. The results of your test will be emailed to you within a further 3 working days, along with potential treatment options and next steps.

You should then be able to explore treatment options with your GP. If they can't help you, you can ask them to complete a referral form and for a small additional fee one of our expert doctors can provide an advisory letter based on your results.

Please note that home test kits are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and you should discuss the results and any potential treatment options with your GP, or request a referral.
