Ear Infections and Chiropractic

Have you ever been awakened in the middle of the night by a sobbing child in pain with an ear infection?

Ear infections usually cause a fever in excess of 102 degrees. Pediatricians treat ear infections with antibiotics most of the time.

One case study involving over 4,000 children, found that spinal motion restricted in the upper neck induced ear infections.

Chiropractors do not treat ear infections, but if your child is getting chronic ear infections, they may have nerve interference. This condition can be relieved by a chiropractic adjustment.
