Please help -
we have been lucky with DS1 he is very rarely poorly - but he now has the runs but also keeps weeping and holding his left ear saying it is going to explode.

He is running a temperature so have dosed him up with calpol and ibuprofen. he is now smack bang inbetween doses so can't have anything else and he is sobbing next to me. He is nearly 4 is there anything else I can do to help him?

I have made an appointment to see the GP for Wednesday to review his inhalor so if he is still unwell then I will ask for guidance but is there anything else I can do without seeing a GP.

If he were my son, I would ring up and ask to see a GP today. He might have an ear infection and you might get given the wonderful amoxycillin which would sort his ear out in 24 hours.
