Recurring left ear infections

Hi, My son is 4 (will be 5 in Aug.). I breastfed until he was three but he bad recurring ear infections as a baby. I suspect these were because I had a c-section with antibiotics, I also battled with yeast in breast while nursing due to high dose of antibiotics I was taking for a post operative uterine infection from the section. He had tubes in his ears at 8 months. I have become increasingly leary of md's over the years due to the use of antibiotics. My son has had a recurring ear infection in his left ear. It usually occurs after he has gotten water in it. I have to use plugs in his ears at all times when swimming. Two to three days before ear pain starts he is very restless in the evening. Tosses and turns in bed, talks and cries out in his sleep. Naps more in daytime. He is usually a happy go lucky child but likes to be near me or his dad. Very clingy when sick. By the third day he complains of ear pain. Screams, cries, wants to be held but hard to calm down. Once the ear perforates and drains he is generally fine. He usually is a little congested in the nose around the time of the infection. When his ear drains it is a sticky amber color, but tonight it was tinged pink. There is not a homeopathic Doctor anywhere near here. I have tried to compare him myself to remedies but most remedies suggest right ear. I have leaned towards Chamomilia or pulsatilla but do not want to second guess myself. With other situations I am usually right in finding the remedy but with his ear infections I feel to much pressure because they are so frequent. Any suggestions on remedies? I also would like to know if the right remedy is chosen isn't it supposed to help with the ear infections not being so frequent. I really do not want to have to do the tube route. Also, can mullein oil be used for pain after the ear had perforated? what about grapeseed extract mixed with teatree?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Chamomilla is a better choice due to the restless behaviour and worsening from water in the ear.


Give his just 3 doses of Chamomilla 30C. No more after this.

Report status 48 hours after this.

Hi
We've gone through the detailed history of yours and your son. Well from the narration it appears to be a 'Chronic infection of the middle ear'. I sugest you keep your kid under professional homoeopathic care rather than trying self/home medication. And since there are many complications with the reccuring infections, and homoeopathic treatment is perfect and complete only with a detailed case study and analysis especailly in chraonic ailments, you can contact us at our website for the treatment and online consultaion. we have panel of Qualified Homoeopathic Superspecialist Doctors who take atmost care in dealing with all the medical problems.

Hi, I went on and gave my son a dose of Chamomilla Monday evening before bed and then twice yesterday. This has been the longest he has ever complained about an ear infection. He has had pains every night while sleeping and the ear has been draining a good bit. In past it has drained about a day and then stopped. He is real congested sounding in his nose. Heavy lids. He has been running a mild fever during the day for the past two days. Has been napping. I have been giving him goldenseal and echin. for any infection. It is in a liquid form. Do you think the Chamomilla is working? or right remedy? I am still a newbie to homeopathics. Over the past four years my use with homeopathics has been more for bruises, burn etc... Want to make sure I am on right route to healing for him. Thanks so much for your help.

He is less irritable, but having alot more fluid draining. Outside of ear a little red from irritation and/or wiping the drainage. He is sleeping better at night than he was but still complaining of pain once and a while. Today he seems much better than yesterday even with drainage. Not as irritable. Appetite for mainly sugary things or nothing at all. So far no fever today but did give him a little motrin (which I hate using) for pain in ear. I have not used in mullein or grapeseed extract today thinking that maybe they were contributing to more drainage. We are going out of town tomorrow and just wanted to make sure that if there were a remedy to take with me if I needed it that I would have it. I am pretty much agains conventional medicines. Thanks,
Wendy

Take Chamomilla 200C along with you.

Give a SINGLE dose ONLY WHEN he starts going down again.

Both the mental improvement and drainage point that the remedy is working very well. there is no need for any further doses till he starts degrading.

Thank you for the help. I was wondering if you thought I should give him anything for the nasal congestion or if it will take care of it self through the chamomilla? Thanks

We never give 2 remedies at the same time.

It should resolve under Chamomilla itself.

Remember just one 200C dose ONLY when the improvement comes to a complete halt.

Hi, We have been out of town for three days but wanted to update. My son's ear is still draining. I would not say that things are worse but they are not really better either. I have looked at local health food stores and stores where we went but have been unable to find the chamomilla 200c. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should do? His eyes have been glossy but no high fever. His left ear still drains clear amber, mostly but every once in a while a white mucosy/snotty substance. There is no smell and he complains about it hurting every once in a while. The outer is a little raw from drainage and he tilts head to shoulder and does not want anyone to touch the outer ear either.
Thanks
