Could Cough And Back Pain Of 3 Year Old Be Linked To Ear Infections?

Hi my 3 year old daughter has had a cough for about a week now, she is just getting over a cold and ear infection. Today she started saying that her back was hurting. She has had several ear infections since summer, in fact we are seeing a ENT tomorrow. Could the cough and back pain be linked to the ear infections?

Hi,
Any infection in the body might give generalized body-ache and muscle pain, backache.
So go for treatment of cough and ear infection, he will be alright.
You can give Ibuprofen or paracetamol syrup for backache.
Ok and take care.
