The priority is dual-action relief: administer acetaminophen at 10-15 mg/kg/dose every 4-6 hours for systemic effect, and apply a warm compress over the affected ear for local vasodilation and soothing.
Position the child with the head elevated to promote eustachian tube drainage and reduce pressure. Avoid having the child lie flat on the unaffected side, which can increase discomfort.
Never instruct a young child to blow their nose forcefully; this Valsalva-like maneuver can propel nasopharyngeal pathogens into the middle ear, worsening the infection. Avoid cold applications, which can be startling and less effective for deep, throbbing inflammatory pain.
