| http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#value | - Most cases of AOM clear up on their own within a week and do not require antibiotic treatment. (Antibiotics are necessary for children with special health concerns, and infants younger than 6 months.) Doctors often recommend a watchful waiting period for the first 48 to 72 hours after symptoms appear, to see if ear pain and other symptoms resolve on their own.
