The best way to prevent your children from getting ear infections is to make sure they get regular checkups with a doctor. Your child’s doctor can monitor their hearing and look for signs of an infection, such as pain or discharge. If there are any concerns, your child should be referred to an ear specialist right away. Additionally, you can help prevent ear infections by keeping your child's ears clean and dry, avoiding cotton swabs in the ears, and using only approved cleaning solutions.
