Ear to the ground: what to look for in ear infections, especially in young children
Ear infections can sometimes fester within a child’s ear without anyone realizing. Kimberly S. Traver, a clinical audiologist and chair of Bowling Green State University’s department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, says she often sees children who, according to parents and teachers, “aren’t paying attention in class.” “It’s not that they’re not paying attention,” Ms. Traver said. “It’s that they’re not hearing well.” Middle ear infections – most common in infants and young children – can cause temporary hearing loss. However, very young children might have trouble expressing their discomfort, meaning ear infections can be difficult for parents to detect. Such infections can also be very painful.
