Hello,
I just read your "hot ear" post, and wander if you have had any good results from the chiropractor? My 5yr old son recently developed this strange symptom a couple of weeks back, and I can't put my finger on what is causing it! We have cool flannels at the ready each time it occurs, and I have tried homeopathic remedies, which haven't hit the spot. His ear, usually the right, heats up and gets slightly swollen in the early evening hours!
Anyway, if you have any info which might shed light on this, i would be very grateful to hear it.
Many thanks
Debi

My son gets hot red right ear as well. A very distinquished chiropractor told us this: He needs his neck adjusted, as he has a pinched nerve. He specifically said the 2nd cervical needs adjustment, and that this chiropractor had treated numerous other patients for this problem and it alleviated their problem. I now have an appointment to take my son to a chiropractor. hope this helps.

Debi,
My 9 year old son has the same deal going on, only at night though. He puts bags with ice on them. It's weird! About the Chiropractor, we go to one 3x a week to get adjusted. My son has been going for a year and it hasn't stopped his ears from getting fire hot.
