The headache may accompany ear pain, and the baby may tilt their head to one side in an attempt to relieve the discomfort. 2. Otitis media in babies can cause fever, nausea, and vomiting. The fever may last for several days, and nausea and vomiting are also common symptoms. 3. Babies may experience ear discomfort, often placing their hands on the ear or repeatedly scratching at it, indicating that their ear feels uncomfortable.
