Ear infections are too often misdiagnosed as an infection (read: bacterial) when it is really just a build up of fluid. Then this build up of fluid is over treated with antibiotics. The American Association of Pediatricians issued a statement in 2004 with some guidelines on a ‘wait and see’ approach to ear infections. Many doctors still do not follow the advice. Don’t over medicate! Try simple home remedies for ear infections that work! Here is a great all natural home remedy for ear infections by Homemade Mommy that provided quick relief from Frugally Sustainable.
