Should I Visit To Doctor For Ear Pain After Been Bitten By Child And Temperature Of 99 Fahrenheit?
My grandson is 3 and was bitten on his ear by another child at day care yesterday. It punctured the back of his ear a bit and is red. he complains a bit that his ear hurts and has a temperature of 99 farenheit. She has put polysporin on it. Should she take hm to the walk in clinic to have it looked at.
Hi. Thanks for your query. I suggest you to apply ice over affected area. Give acetaminophen for pain relief. Watch for 24 hours and in case discomfort is there get examined by doctor. Hope this helps. Take care..
