Can Ear Infection Lead To Rashes All Over The Face?

My little boy has had repeated ear infections and the latest one will not clear after 4 lots of anti biotics, we are seeing and ENT specialist on Thursday but over the last 24 hours he has come out in a terrible rash all over his nether regions and particularly bad on his cheeks?

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The rashes over the face can be secondary to allergic reaction for any antibiotics taken to treat ear infection. Nothing to be panic, consult an ENT surgeon and get it evaluated as early as possible. Mean while you can take a course of anti allergic drugs like cetrizine.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
