What Are the Symptoms of an Ear Infection?
We frequently see patients with middle ear infections (acute otitis media) here at PhysicianOne Urgent Care. Very common in toddlers and kids, middle ear infections occur in the small, air-filled space behind the eardrum. A few telltale signs of a middle ear infection include:
- Ear pain
- Difficulty hearing
- Fluid draining from the ear
- Headache
- Fever (in children)
Many middle ear infections resolve on their own in about a day, but this isn’t always the case. It’s important to speak with a medical professional if your ear infection symptoms:
- Persist or worsen after 24 hours
- Keep you awake at night
- Cause severe discomfort
- Include ear drainage that may be clear, bloody, or pus-like
