Child Is Having Ear Pain. Used Peroxide. When Seen Inside There Is Thick White Film Over A Redness. Having Diziness. Treatment?
My son has been having on and off ear pain in his right ear. Last night i took a little peroxcide mixed with water and put it in his ear had him sit a minute then drain it out. Then when I looked inside I noticed a thick white film over a deep redness deep in his ear. I tried to use a q tip to get it out but it is really stuck in there and today he is complaining of dizziness with the pain. He has also been losing hearing for the last few days.
I think you have already exceeded the amount of home therapy that can be done ... you need to visit the ear surgeon as soon as possible. It seems that there is either a fungal infection, or some other problem. Please do NOT use any sharp instrument inside the ear ... the problem is increasing because of delay in accessing the doctor.
Hi, It seems that child might be having acute infection in ear. Consult your doctor and go for one oral antibiotic medicine course. Put antibiotic ear drops. Due to swellmng and induration there might be some hearing loss and pain. After infection controlled, this problem will not be there. Ok and take care.
