Stinky ears?

535 Views 4 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  afishwithabike
My DS is 6 months old. I keep him very clean, prob to clean LOL. I wash his ears everynight, but the last say 3 weeks, inside his ears smell, kinda like stinky socks. He's ears are not bugging him so I doubt it is an infection, unless it is a painless one. Anyone have any idea why his ears smell?

It's pretty typical in babies. Sometimes due to moisture they can get yeast infections inside as well as behind them. Use a typical inner ear cleanser or an ear candle. It should help.
The part behind dd's ears always smelled. Blech. Making sure to wash behind her ears every day helped.
