1 year old with fluid buildup behind eardrum

[Guest guest]

I heard putting tubes in the ears is just as bad in some ways as having the

fluid build up. They both have their downsides. My son was born w/ fluid build

up and it was so bad they thought he was deaf. He has a half sister that had

the same thing - fluid build up and fear of deafness. She got tubes put in her

ears, my son didnt. They are both fine now and my son never gets ear

infections, but his half sister does. I dont know why some doctors choose

surgury right

away and others hold off but things turned out fine for my son w/o surgury.

Hi all

 

I was wondering if anyone knows about this condition and what can be done to

treat this besides surgery. My friend's son has (not sure what it's called) and

the doctor suggested surgery to drain the fluid. Please let me know if anyone

knows of an alternative.

 

Thank you.

 

Eman

Many kids' ear problems will disappear completely if they are taken off all

dairy products.

 

 

 

Take care,

Hi

 

The fliud behind ear drum must most possibly connected to the larynx

nose or mouth..

 

You can try putting him in a cradle made of cloth and swinging him to

and fro in a great speed

 

Alternately you can also try giving him warm water.. Is there mucus

problem also..

 

Have a steam with Vicks..

Merry Meet Eman,

 

Has anyone tried a decongestate or a antihestimine? (spelling may be off it's a

cold and allergy medince such as benadryl)

 

I get ear infections alot both as a child and as an adult. They had put me on a

cold like medince for a month at a time then would take me off of it and I would

get the infection back. So when I turned 6 years of age they placed tubes in my

ears so that they would drain on their own. When I turned about 12 years old

they came out on their own.

 

As an adult I have busted my ear drum now twice. The first time I was just

getting over a cold and my head was all stuffed up. I had gone in but the

incompant doctor chose not to listen and I busted my right ear drum while

coughing. This scond time I was catching a cold and started sneezing and

coughing and once again reopened the small hole.

 

They are now talking about surgry but there is no guarntee that it will fix the

problem. And before I am much older I may need a hearing aide. I am 34 years of

age and my suggestion would be take the child to see a ear specailist or an

allergist and see if the problem may be allergy related.

 

If he is in a daycare center or around alot of other children he may be catching

cold after cold thus not allowing the fluid to drain. But seek medical care and

do not let it go untreated.

 

A warm towel can also help stop some of the pain and cause the ear to begin to

drain a bit. Cotton balls and hats also help to keep the wind and things out of

the ear. If the parents talk to the child's family doctor their are also drops

you can add to the ear to help with the pain. But they do not like to give them

out alot so you have to request them.

 

My kids also had problems when they were little with fluid build up. We ended

up placeing my son on benadryl alot of the time. Both kids have allergies and

asthma is why I asked is it possible he has allergies. Ear problems also tend to

run in family histories as well as allergies.

 

I hope this helps and I wish all concerned a speedy recovery. You might also try

looking on Web MD or Mother Nature.com

 

Blessed Be

Shannon

Look in a health food store for a product called Larix by eclectic

institute. Taken as directed at the onset of a cold or allergy that causes a

runny

nose will prevent ear problems including infections. .Follow directions on the

container, it is usually powdered and is mixed into juice or milk. There is no

taste that I can discern. It has been a godsend for my grandchildren and for

me too. I have a long history of ear infections and such.

Bless you and the little ones too.
