Weaning your baby from a bottle between 9 and 12 months of age will help stop this problem. If your infant has continuous nasal secretions, consider an allergy as a contributing factor to the ear infections, especially if your child has other allergies such as eczema. A milk protein allergy is most likely the problem. Check the adenoids. If your toddler constantly snores or breaths through his mouth, he may have large adenoids.
Large adenoids can contribute to ear infections.
