What Treatment Can Be Done For Ear Infection Of My 7 Month Old Infant ?
7 month old infant, right ear infection? hot hands, fussy, congested, no fever, body becomes limp at times

Lack of fever in an infant does not imply an absence of infection. Please seek immediate medical evaluation and treatment. The ear infection, if any, can be easily treated. There are many other signs to be seen on actual examination such as heart rate, breathing pattern, hydration and so on. The sign of the body becoming limp at times should not be ignored. It may signify exhaustion, dehydration, low blood sugar levels or shunting of blood to vital organs.
