Will Ear Infection Cause Pain During A Flight?
My son was diagnosed with an ear infection today (Tuesday) and was sent home with amoxicillin. He had one dose this evening before bed. We have a necessary flight on Thursday evening. Will it be okay to travel with him on an airplane or will he be in terrible pain? The Dr. Today said he should be fine but I'm wanting another opinion.

Hello. I just read through your question.
By the time your flight departs, he will have had 48 hours worth of antobiotic. that is usually enough time. He will be fine.
