Ear Infections. The Truth.
February 11, 2019
Welcome to the Blog of Meet Dr. Steve! Today’s focus: Ear infections, a subject often misunderstood in the medical world. Inner ear infections, specifically, hold a truth that 90% of people are unaware of. Get ready to scratch your head as I delve into this intriguing topic, especially for you mamas out there. Let's unravel the mystery behind ear infections!
Ear infections can make a child's life challenging, as I experienced firsthand. Endless rounds of antibiotics, relentless pain, and a cascade of side effects became my childhood norm. The buzzing in my ears blurred everything, contributing to maxed-out ADD, disrupted bowels, and diminishing eyesight by first grade. A downward spiral that even the doctors failed to grasp.
Babies, kids, children, adolescents – they're the ones plagued by ear infections. Why? Immune compromise is part of it, but the improperly formed gut and underdeveloped facial bones in children play a crucial role. The anatomy of a child's face makes it easy for fluids to build up pressure in the ear tubes, causing infections. While nurses are aware, it's often missed by doctors. Scratch your head – it's okay.
The truth is, ear infections stem from a bad gut, a revelation that may surprise many. When little Tommy, who struggled with chronic ear infections, experiences relief in just four treatments with Dr. Steve, it's time to consider a different approach. My comprehensive treatment addresses cranial issues, chiropractic concerns, and functional microbiome problems, fixing the entire pyramid for the child.
Antibiotics, often the go-to solution, pose a significant problem. Repeated use without probiotic support leads to destroyed gut health. Research from the University of Pittsburgh in 1986 revealed that Amoxicillin, a commonly prescribed antibiotic, makes ear infections six times worse. Yet, this practice persists. Scratch your head again – the disconnect is glaring.
Antibiotics without proper gut restoration create more problems than solutions. If you take something away, you must replace it. Understanding this is crucial. Doctors prescribing antibiotics without addressing the aftermath of gut damage contribute to a cycle of suffering.
Awareness is key. If you know someone dealing with ear infections, guide them my way. Suffering is not necessary. Explore the connection between microbiome and ear infections through research.
