A healthcare worker sought medical advice after four days of fever, muscle pains, occipital headache and blocked ears, and was diagnosed with a high CRP level and blood bullae in the outer ear canal. In addition, skin rash appeared during hospital care, and the fever did not seem to go down upon treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics, during which the CRP rose to a level of 413 mg/L at the highest. Haemorragic bullous otisis was confirmed diagnosis caused by Mycoplasma Pneumoniae.
