Ear drops are recommended just for pain. Give paracetamol or Ibugesic syrup

Hello You can continue with paracetamol syrup or Ibugesic syrup if your child has fever, as advised by your pediatrician. Since the fever is persisting and there is ear pain, it is important to consult your pediatrician for a direct examination. The doctor will need to examine the ears to rule out otitis media (ear infection) and also examine enlarged lymph nodes associated with fever can sometimes cause pain that radiates to the ear.

Dear parent, Please prefer paracetamol initially for fever. Consider ibugesic only if things are not settling with paracetamol . If there is no ear discharge, no need of any drops as of now.
Next Steps
Watch for ear discharge, persistent fever more than 3 days Visit a nearby pediatrician if child develops any of the above signs

Greetings combination of fever and earache strongly resembles an acute middle ear infection (otitis media), though it shares characteristics with a viral upper respiratory infection or referred pain from a throat infection.Do not administer over-the-counter ear drops without a proper medical examination.A pediatrician must inspect the eardrum first, as certain drops are unsafe if a hidden perforation is present.
