My son has suddenly started discharging fluid from his ear, along with vomiting, a headache, and a fever. What could be the cause?
These symptoms may indicate a severe ear infection, such as acute otitis media, or, in some cases, a more serious condition, such as meningitis or an inner ear infection spreading to the surrounding structures. You should take your son to a doctor or paediatrician immediately, as he needs prompt medical evaluation and treatment to prevent serious complications.
