What Could Cause Ear Infection In A 3 Years Old Child?
My 3 year old daughter currently has croup and an ear infection. We are treating the ear with antibiotic drops (she has tubes in place) and the virus with traditional methods. She is complaining of pain in her mouth. I just looked in it and saw white patches on both sides of the cheeks. I touched it because it looked like part of her dinner; It didn't move. Any ideas or suggestions ?? Thank you.
