Child Has Ear Pain. Related To Taking Aleve Pill?
My 4 year old son was playing with the cushions from the couch today at my mother-in-laws and found an Aleve pull. He brought it to immediately. I asked if there were any others or if he ate any and he said no. This happened about 10 hours ago. About 2 hours ago, he woke up with an ear ache and hasn t been sleeping well. Is there anyway that his ear ache could be related to eating an Aleve? I asked him a number of times and initially believed him that he did not eat any buy now I am worried.

hello,
Aleve (naproxen) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body.
There is no side effect like ear pain of this pill.
Watch for Cause of Ear pain:
There are may reasons of ear pain like cold, ear wax, f origin body, ear infection,tooth infection,sore throat,sinus infection, injury etc
If still ear pain is persist, consult with ENT Specialist.
I wish he will recover soon.
Thanks;

Hi,
Not related!
If at all it should reduce the pain!
It is an anti inflammatory drug.
Ear pain is a new problem in him.
Please get him examined by the doctor.
Good luck
