View allI'm a bit worried about my 10-year-old son. He has swelling, pain, and pus coming from his right ear. Last year, I was prescribed Candibiotic ear drops for my own ear infection, so I'm wondering if they're safe and effective to use for him as well. If not, could you suggest some other options for treating this kind of ear infection?
I would strongly advise against using Candibiotic eye drops for your son's ear infection. Eye drops are formulated specifically for the eyes, and using them in the ears can cause more harm than good.
