Suggest Treatment For Headache, Ear Ache And Mild Fever In Child
My 7 year old daughter has been complaining of ear ache and headache for 4 days now. At the beginning of the week she had a low grade fever and now her body temperature is always too low, 95 or 96. She still complains of headache when asked but it s not that strong that she cries about it or is laying down. She is still playing around the house and in good spirits. She is also coughing a lot and her nose is running. What should I do? I ve been giving her cough medicine and ibuprofen for the head/ear ache...what else?

The condition explained can be summarized as Ear ache with with fever(now subsided) with cough and running nose with headache. Child might be suffering from ASOM due to an Upper airway infection. Child might require antibiotic course if positive on Ear examination. Give a throat soothener with a decongestant therapy in form of Syp Sinarest AF or Ambroxol. Otogesic ear drops will relieve her from ear ache. Get a ENT consultation for Ear infection.
