Just wanted to post this to see if others have experienced the same as me with their children.
My DS is 15 months and currently cutting his upper and lower molars. When this happens he seems to get gooey ears with a slight discharge. In the past I have gone to the GP and have been prescribed anti biotics. However he never seems bothered by his ears and I am wondering this time whether I should try and see if his ears will heal without treatment from the GP.
He is not bothered by the discharge but his gums are very red and swollen and he is showing other signs of teething (excessive dribbling and putting everything in his mouth)
Anyone else have experiences or advice to share?

Is there a correlation between ear infections and a child teething?
