Remedy for bunged up ears in 4 yr old
I would be grateful for some advice please.My son is 4 and has had a mild cold. The first day of the cold which was Sunday he had earache in the right ear at night. I used colloidal silver and he was ok for the night. It started hurting Monday and he was quite pale. I gave him pulsatilla and took him to the Drs and they said both ears we're red. By the time it was tea time both ears hurt a little and he had a fever coming on but an hour later it went I am positive this was the pulsatilla working. He had a fever again at night for just an hour and pus came out of the right ear. The cold seemed to have gone and he was fine Tuesday but it started to come back on Thursday after a bad mucusy night so I gave pulsatilla again which again worked.
Today which is Saturday he is snotty again has a wet cough and is having trouble hearing as both ears seemed blocked. Should I repeat pulsatilla again as it worked so well before or is it time for a new remedy.
Many thanks

Hi there.
Thanks for your response it is much appreciated.
I haven't replied sooner as I saw improvement in my son and he is pretty much back to normal now so I think maybe the pulsatilla did work.
Thank you for taking interest
