Danny asked:


Dads got this hearing/ear problem that comes and goes for no apparent reason. Its not ringing in the ears. He said its like having water in your ears, where his own voice/breathing is louder. He instinctively tries to yawn to fix the problem (like someone on an airplane) but it never works. Sometimes when he sits forward with his head bowed or lies down the problem goes away.
Anyone now whats causing it?
Thanks for your help
Danny

On Sunday, my three year old daughter was complaining of a ear pain (no fever). So we took her to the doctor and she was diagnosed with ear infection. The doctor prescribed antibiotic but said we could hold off on the antibiotic if she wasn’t complaining the next day. She does not have any fever and has been her usual playful self. Is it possible for a child to not have fever or complain about ear pain even with an infection? Should I be worried? Can it cause hearing problems in future?

I’m starting to wonder if my 11 1/2 month old is hearing well. She looks at me when talk to her, but she just sounds so mumbly and doesn’t make many different sounds.
