A member asked:
My niece is 13 and she has a ear infection in 4 days she is going to fiji would she be able to fly with the infection she has antibiotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: She should be able to fly. Would advise chewing gum taking off and landing to open up the eustachian tube to avoid sharp pain in the ears. Or she could yawn or blow against pinched nose to release ear pressure.
