What Are The White Dots With Pus Which Cause Pain In The Ear?
I had my son in the shower he is 22 months as I was rinsing him off he stuck his finger in his ear and started screaming like he was in hurting. I looked in his ear with a ear microscope thing and it looks like there is either ear wax or pus and white dots? Could this be an ear infection?
