Finish antibiotics: Did she finish any antibiotics given to her for the left ear infection?It's very important to finish all antibiotics when given...this may help clear up the right infection OR she may need a different antibiotic if the first one isn't working.It is not uncommon to have a runny nose and/or cough with an ear infection.Encourage plenty of fluids and Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen for pain.Have Dr confirm
