What Causes Bad Odor From Ear Of An Infant?
My 1-year-old has just recovered from a minor cold. He has been behaving normally with no sign of pain or fever. Tonight at supper we saw him touching his ear, and we noticed a very bad smell, similar to the smell of garbage. We realized the odor was coming from one of his ears. I bathed him, and we can still smell this odor in his ear. His ear does not seem to be bothering him at all. What could it be? Do we need to see a doctor tomorrow? Is there anything we should be doing for him now?
