If the antibiotics are for recurrent ear infections it is definitely worth trying to see a paediatrician. My sisters son was prescribed multiple sets of antibiotics until finally they put from its in and he was much better after that.

irishnkiwifamily: my daughter has had more than 12 courses of antibiotics over an 18 month period for a chronic ear infection. I am not happy about it as the antibiotics have not been successful in clearing the infection but I respect that the doctors know more than me. She also has a perforation in one ear and we have been referred to the ENT clinic at Lewisham Hospital where they have been dealing it for the last year.

One thing I have noticed that has helped is taking her off cow's milk. I was reluctant to do this but a nutritionist friend suggested I try goat's milk instead. She hasn't noticed the switch and has goats milk in her porridge and to drink in a cup daily and the infection has cleared. We put her back on cow's milk and the infection came back. We returned to goat's milk and the infection has cleared again. It could be a coincidence but it worked for me? Maybe worth a try if your child is experiencing something similar?

It seems like it might be something connected with the gut. Have a look at GAPS diet.
