My daughter having just got over croup has now got an ear infection. On Sunday morning she woke up with a crusty discharge out of her right ear, she only complained that her ear hurt once. My mum took her to the doctors this morning and he said its infected?
She has taken one dose of the Amoxcillin, said it was disgusting and has since then refused to take it, I've tried everything, eventually putting it in her mouth and she spat it all over me?
So, half of me is thinking not to give it to her as she is not complaining, but will the infection go away on its own? Or has anyone got any other ideas of how to get it down her, my brother said put it in milk but I thought milk killed the stuff in the medicine?
