My son is about the same age as yours, and I tried Miracle-Mineral-Supplement on him for an ear infection last year. Unfortunately my family has a low tolerance for Miracle-Mineral-Supplement , so it has to work in pretty much one dose or they refuse to take more. I gave him one dose of 3 drops before bed and he slept through the night but still had the ear infection next day. I think it wasn't as bad, but I have no way of really judging. So I took him to a doctor and got his Antibiotics and the infection cleared up right away.
