Ear Infections Part II

Doctors of Chiropractic do not treat ear infections. But when a patient with an ear infection is adjusted by a chiropractor, it helps improve chemical imbalances and increases the body’s immune response.

An eighteen year case study of 4,600 patients with restricted upper neck bones concluded: ear infections were very prominent. When the spine was in proper alignment, ear infections usually didn’t occur.

Case studies tend to prove that many children with chronic ear infections, have nerve interference in their upper neck region. Have your child checked by a chiropractic physician on a regular basis.

Ear Infections Part I

Most parents have been awakened in the night by a crying child that has an ear infection. This condition is painful, and is called acute otitis media. Body temperatures soar to 102-104 and fluid discharges from the ear.

Most pediatricians will treat ear infections with antibiotics or decongestants. In severe, chronic cases, tubes are put into the ears to help with drainage. This type of treatment has many side effects. One side effect is the formation of scar tissue, that can lead to future hearing loss.

When antibiotics are given for ear infection, they are seldomly effective. In many cases, recurrent rates were increased in children that had antibiotic care.
