If your 5-year-old child is experiencing mild hives on their stomach a few days after taking amoxicillin for an ear infection, it is likely a reaction to the antibiotic. It is important to have this evaluated by a healthcare professional to determine if it is an allergy. In some cases, hives may not necessarily mean the child is allergic to the antibiotic, and declaring an allergy could lead to using less effective and more toxic antibiotics in the future. It is best to consult with a pharmacist to assess the hives and receive appropriate guidance on how to proceed.
