Hi just seeing if anyone has been through the same thing?
Mia is 2 years and 3 months old since 6 months old she has had dark brown wax in her ears I’ve took her drs but they just gave her ear drops which haven’t worked I’m really worried about her and her balance is awful everyday she’s falling over and ending up with cuts and bangs to her head etc she dribbles a lot still and I don’t think she can breathe properly through her nose I’m honestly worried she’s going to knock her self out or worse 😔 she had a appointment at barncoose but that was a waste of time but waiting on a referral to treliske but it’s taking forever so she’s going drs tomorrow to see what they can do

Sorry about the long post just wanted to see if anyone else’s little ones have been through the same things and what’s the outcome been for them x

Today alone she’s fell over about 10 times and got two bumps on her head 😔

This was EXACTLY my son. Turned out he had extra large adenoids and tonsils, ears couldn’t drain the wax and he had constant burst ear drums. Also couldn’t hear properly and talked very nasally and dribbling constantly! He never slept through either! Took til he was 3.5 for anyone to realise! He’s had both removed now and was a different boy over night! Good luck
