Does sleeping with purulent discharge affect hearing?

Patient's question:

First came the cold, then tonsillitis. After that, I discovered otitis media. There's thick fluid leaking when sleeping. Does this affect a one-and-a-half-year-old baby's hearing?

Doctor's answer:

Symptoms caused by the common cold can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine such as Yan Bian Granules, Wu Wei Xiao Du Wan, and Can Ling Bai Zhu San for regulation. Antibiotics should be used in combination to combat infection and avoid harmful stimuli.
Otitis media in children can cause significant harm to patients. It is recommended that patients seek timely treatment from a specialist and follow the doctor's guidance. Drinking more water and paying attention to dietary issues can be beneficial in daily life. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
