What Causes Ear Pain And Cold?
I have a 5 yo who is complaining of ear pain, scratching at his ear and he has been suffering from a cold. So far so good. (!) I got him to gently blow his nose after he was crying and it is red with blood, though it's not a streaming bleed. Ear infection?

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic
The middle year is connected to the Pharynx (throat).
Cold accentuates ear infection.
As such cold and ear pain occur simultaneously.
Hope this answer serves your purpose.
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
