Has anyone's baby ever had an ear infections that smells like rotten milk.?

Question:

Answers:
Dear TG
Of course.
Infection caused by Kleibsiella in the skin of the auditory canal
Othe cause of that specific odour, is the infection with hemophyllous influenza,
Both can be cures with oral amoxicillin (dose depending on the weight of the baby)
Do not use ear drops. They can only compound an established infection.
Have the baby leaning over(ON) the side of the affected ear, to let it drain any secretions,and watch the pillow for green or yellow stains-
If the ear drum (tympanus) is not yet perforated, this will suffice.
Check first and before any medicine, wheter there is a foreign body in the ear canal (sometimes this simple step is skipped even by experienced people).
Yours very faithfully
