My child has been getting ear infections quite often. He also has fluid. How can I get to the root of this?

Yes he’s off dairy. He hardly eats nuts so don’t think that’s it.

From vaccines. Sorry. No reason to rule it out. Stop bathing him if you do often.

Most likely there is an anatomical reason for it. See an ENT.

You can try taking your child off milk for a couple of months & see if that helps. He should also see an ENT, as frequent ear infections can cause hearing loss.

My baby has a frequent ear infections and I bathe him daily. Curious why bathing would increase ear infections if the eardrum separates the ear canal from the inner ear where the fluid builds up and gets infected?
