Could Swelling Around The Eyes Be Related To Ear Infection?

I brought grandson to dr cuz ear was draining & red so I knew he had ear infection. He was given Ciprodex Otic 4 drops morning & at night. My grandson now has swelling around both eyes near nose. Is this a reaction to the ear infection or the medicine he was prescribed? Will I need to take him back to dr for eye drops or is there an over the counter I can use?

Hi,

You need to take him back to the doctor either ways. Although, I think it is because of the medication he is receiving.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
