3-month-old baby ear drops?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Using ear drops in a 3-month-old baby requires doctor evaluation first. While ear infections, especially middle ear inflammation (otitis media), are common in babies, these usually require antibiotic treatment and drops alone aren't enough. If a doctor diagnoses an ear infection and prescribes drops, warming the bottle in your palm for 1-2 minutes before use (cold drops can cause dizziness), laying baby on their side, dispensing the recommended number of drops, and keeping baby on their side for 2-3 minutes makes them more effective. Always consult your doctor before using them.
