Earache & Ear Infections in Children — Pharmacy First at Knights Pharmacy

Children with ear pain don't need a GP appointment first.

Through NHS Pharmacy First, Knights Pharmacy can assess and treat earache in children aged 1–17 — free of charge.

Symptoms to look out for:

Tugging or pulling at the ear
Crying, difficulty sleeping or feeding
Fluid or discharge from the ear
Fever

How we treat it

How we treat it: After a brief assessment, our pharmacist can recommend pain relief or supply antibiotics through Pharmacy First where a bacterial infection is identified.

Seek urgent help if your child has a high fever with a stiff neck, difficulty breathing, or appears very unwell.

Walk in with your child — no appointment needed. Free on the NHS.
