Signs/Symptoms your child may display if they have an ear infection:
1. Child may pull on ear, especially when very young
2. Child says "ear hurts"
3. Drainage is coming from the ear
4. Child has a fever/cold
5. Child is very irritable
6. Child is sleeping poorly
7. Older children may say "huh" a lot when you speak to them
A child may have all, some, or none of these symptoms and still have otitis media. If your child displays all, some, or if you simply suspect something is not quite right, then I recommend a visit with the pediatrician to have their ears checked.
