A member asked:
My daughter keeps pulling on her left ear since she was 4 months old. still does it even after we found out what it was could it be something worse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
She is preverbal: Could be: ear infection; referred pain from tooth coming in on that side; referred pain from sore throat on that side; eczema in ear lobe on that side; habit; that is for starters. If she is not bothered by it leave her be. You do not have to treat every sign or symptom!
