Question
At what age might a newborn start showing frequent ear-pulling behavior, and what could be the possible cause?
Answer
Based on your description, the child may have tonsillitis. It is recommended to start with symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. If the situation does not improve, it may be necessary to consider tonsillectomy. You can also combine cough medicine and antibiotics, and ensure plenty of water intake. As the treatment progresses, the child’s symptoms should gradually improve. Wishing for a speedy recovery.
