1. What is the likely diagnosis?

Acute Otitis media

2. What are the Otoscopy findings

Otoscopic Features of Acute Otitis Media
Bulging tympanic membrane - Most predictive sign of AOM; indicates pressure from middle ear effusion
Loss of landmarks - Obscured cone of light
Erythema (redness) - May be present but is less specific; often seen with crying or fever

These findings help differentiate AOM from otitis media with effusion (OME), which typically lacks bulging and acute inflammatory signs.
