It was also something new to him, pulling on his ears. But, hopefully that is all it is and will clear up soon!

Maybe your baby just discovered his ears. I had the same thing with my daughter and I kept taking her back to the doc to have her ears checked, After the fifth time of me being told she didnt have an ear infection, I realized she was just playing with her ears. Their ears are fun, they are shaped funny and they are hanging off of their heads, it is like a new toy, thats all .So you dont have anything to worry about.

It doesn't sound like anything worse but you should have a doctor look at it again. I’d try a different doctor, because ear infections can lead to deafness.

I'd get a 2nd opinion and let the doctor know about your concerns. Sometimes an ear infection is difficult to diagnose. I’ve had ear problems for many years.
