youngest daughter had this really bad ear
infection....well the dr gave her
amoxacillion i told him that that stuff
never works for her but he said well maybe
this time it will....guess what i got a
call right before i was to go to work this
morning from school her ear was bothering
her again so picked her up and took her to
my sil house and went to work called dr on
my way to work they wanted to see her at 4
so took her there and what do you know she
has another earinfection and a sinus one
to boot poor girl so now she is on a
different kind white thick and smells like
orange eww hopefully this will help im
thinking of taking her to my sons hearing

sinus infections.. poor baby give her a

The reason the doctors start with that
antibiotic is because as a society, we are
creating antibiotic resistant strains of
bacterias. And, who knows, maybe 20 years
ago, the infection your daughter has could
have been cured with amoxicillan. But now,
after so much use of it, that particular
strain has figured out amoxicillan and it
needs a stronger antibiotic.
I'm glad your daughter is resting it off.
I hope she feels better soon.

Did you give her some tylenol or motrin?
Didn't the doctor prescribe those drops
that help with the pain? If her ear drum
didn't burst, she can take those. Call the
doctor and see if you can get a
prescription for it.

Do you have a heating pad? Those work
really well! They don't offer the moist
heat but they are good because they keep
an even temperature (warm).

I burt my ear drum when I was in the 2nd
grade. I had to have drops put in. Talk

bad...
I can totally empathise wtih your
daughter. Ear problems SUCK!

Some people have mentioned a heating pad,
but if you don't have one, a hair dryer
set on warm (definitely make sure it's not
too hot) really helps with the pain as
well. If you have the warm air blow into
her ear, she she feel a little better. My
oldest was prone to ear infections up
until she was 2 1/2. She would be given
one antibiotic and then 2 weeks after
finishing the medication she would be back
in with another ear infection.
I hope your little one feels better soon!
