Young children and babies tend to have middle ear infections which are called otitis media. This infection develops a fluid or pus in the ear canal behind the ear drum and causes pain. Sometimes it may lead to deafness. In many cases, the ear drum bursts and release fluid which makes the children feel relieved. It later heals by itself.
