Ørebetennelse - akutt

Akutt mellomørebetennelse er vanlig blant småbarn. Typiske symptomer er smerter i øret i forløpet av en forkjølelse. Smertene starter ofte om natten og forverres når barnet ligger.

Akutt mellomørebetennelse varer normalt ikke mer enn 2-3 dager. Behandlingen handler om å dempe feber og smerter. Illustrasjonsfoto.
