my 3 year old son had THE biggest fit yesterday and while trying to get him in the car seat, my husband yelled very loudly at him. To the point where it hurt ME and I wasn't even in the car. Now this morning my son says he can't hear out of one ear and complained of pain last night.
in children, these symptoms are suggestive of Acute otitis media or hard ear wax ,which is plugging their External auditory canal. to differentiate between these two, ears must be examined. if it is ear wax, then syringing can be done to remove wax or wax solving ear drops along with pain killers are prescribed for few days to get wax soften. if it is acute otitis media then antibiotic, pain killers and nasal decongestants are prescribed.
