See pediatrician: I would recommend bringing your child to see his/her pediatrician or family physician. Ear pain could be due to infection or eustachian tube dysfunction among other things. A thorough history and physical exam can usually diagnose the cause of the pain, which is necessary to provide the proper treatment.
