Hi, thanks for your query. Ear infection in children are quite common because of wide and short eustachian tube. common during cold attacks. You can give him anti histamine + decongestant syrup with paracetamol 250 mg syrup 5 ml after ffood, for 3 to 5 days along with antibiotics. Stem inhalation for the nose just before sleep will help him a lot. Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
