Water in the ears of newborns can usually be treated by slightly shaking the head, swabbing the water, or going to the hospital and utilizing a suction device. Newborns with water in the ear can change the position of the head by gently shaking the head and adjusting the position of the ear so that the water in it flows out slowly. Parents can also use a tiny cotton swab to slowly suck out the water in the ear, paying attention to gentle movements and avoiding probing too deeply. If water in the ear is more serious and cannot be relieved in a simple way, the newborn should seek medical attention and be treated with an instrument such as a suction device. Water in the ear of newborns usually does not cause more serious clinical consequences, but if it is not treated well, it may cause otitis media and other diseases. Therefore, newborns with symptoms of water in the ear should be treated on their own and then taken to a doctor as soon as possible for treatment.
