My son is 12 and has been getting red ears virtually since birth, so I don't think it's stress. Sometimes it's just one ear, and sometimes both. It seems to go away for a while, then he gets it quite regularly again. At the moment, it's happening again and he is desperate to stop it ... but from what many of you say, he will just have to put up with it forever. I thought it could be triggered by sitting near the heater as he seems to get it more on one side (it's winter here in Australia). Are there any medical opinions on this out there - our family doctor just thought we were nuts!!!
