Dry ear wax coming out of ears
Hello doctor...my kid is 2 months old. 5 days back my kid was having some dry ear wax redish brown in colour coming out of one ear, I cleaned it. Today I saw it coming out of another ear. Is it normal or sign of any ear infection?

It is normal. Unless baby is crying or scratching the ear, no need for treatment.
