Poor ds has had a cold for ages (I'm bulk buying medised). It got beter for a while, but came back with a vengeance on Saturday - runny nose, gunky, swollen eyes, unable to breathe properly. It seemed to be better today, but I have just had to clear a huge glob of snot from his left ear. He's always had quite dirty, waxy ears (which I've just cleaned with a sponge in the bath), but this was real, gooey, green, stringy snot. He doesn't seem to be bothered, but should I take him to the docs anyway in case he gets a horrid ear infection? I'm fairly anti antibiotics btw.
