Asked for female, 42 years old from Delhi

Hi, my kid is 7 years old, and he is having some problem where his ears get hot red, and he feels like it's burning. Even during winter, he keeps on applying chilled water to give some temporary relief. I have already visited at least 7-8 pediatrics but it's not helping him and have not been diagnosed yet. Kind request to help here and suggest if I should go to any specialist. I already have visited ent and he recommended some anti allergic medicines, but it didn't help much. Appreciate anyone's input here as he literally cries in the middle of the night and ask me to help him, but I really feel helpless!
