My 5 year old daughter has got fever, cough and cold in last week of january. After recovery and 15 days later, she has got ear pain. Doctor prescribed 5 days antibiotics, maxtra and otrivin. Still the fluid behind the eardrum was there. Then he prescribed alaspan and allegra nasal spray for one month. After 20 days, she has got ear pain again in the left year only. We again went to doctor. He said, right year has been recovered and left year is still blocked. He prescribed antibiotics, maxtra for 7 days and nasonex nasal spray for a month. Its been 3-4 days that my daughter is taking these medicines. After nasal spray, she says sound is coming from ear. She says it for about 15 minutes. So, what should we do now?

Dear lybrate-user, this sound coming from the ear need not worry you. The reason is that there is watery substance in the ear, when the nose spray is given it travels to the ear and forms bubbles of air in the ear. This is why the sound comes from the ear.

Children do get the fluid behind the ear drum after getting a cold on account of their eustachin tube (the tube that connects the nose and the ear) as it is short and broad. An antiallergic tablet along with a mucolytic syrup taken for about two weeks should help.
