EAR INFECTIONS

It appears that the incidence of ear infections during infancy and early childhood is very common.  As parents we often follow the advice of our doctors and agree to give our children antibiotics to alleviate the situation.  There is some research available that discusses why it is important to avoid antibiotics where possible.  Often the allergy connection with regard to ear infections is not explored.  Listed below are some articles that explore the issues surrounding ear infections and treatment.
