In Osaka again

I had a horrific 11 hour flight to Osaka due to what was the start of a little ear infection that began this morning. By the time I’d hit the 7th hour of the flight, the pressure in the cabin was increasingly causing discomfort. By the 10th hour, I was in agony and the descent from 36,000 feet was worse. Once we’d landed and the doors opened, my ear recovered fairly quickly (it’s just stuffed up a bit right now but not painful).

Tomorrow I’ll be seeing what over the counter remedies are available in Japan. I really need some antibiotics but I’m not sure they’re available OTC here (I’d assume not) and I’m not sure when I’ll have time to see a doctor here.
