Suggest Treatment For Headaches And Ear Pain In A Child
My 6 year old daughter keeps complaining of headahces, ear pain and beeping noises in her ear. We ve been to her pediatrician several times over the last 2 months and he keeps putting her on antibiotics and dimetapp. She has had an ear infection once or twice during this timeframe and has had water in her ears a few times....just last week we went back to her pediatrician and yet again was told she had an ear infection minus puss...just fluid. She s been on antibiotics for 7 days now and today the school nurse called because she was complaining of pain.

You need to consult ENT specialist. ENT specialist will do detailed examination of ear, nasopharynx by various scopes and will determine the exact source of infection. There may be perforation in the ear drum or the eustachian tube may be blocked or there may be some glue like discharge in middle ear which is responsible for such complaints.
