My six year old was settling down to sleep when he became very distressed saying his ears were hot, they were very red. His Dad and I asked if his ears hurt? did he need Calpol, he refused and had a meltdown every time we asked if he had any pain. He kept wanting me to hold his ears. In the end we got an appointment with a doctor, which we cancelled as my son fell asleep, the redness went, he woke up this morning everything was fine. So far today anyway. Just wondered is this ASD related or just a medical phenomenon that has no relation to ASD?
