Patient's question:
The child has only been born for a few days, and recently, for some reason, they keep scratching their ears. How is otitis media treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if there is pus flowing from the ear, you should go to the hospital to clean the external auditory canal, and then use ear drops. At the same time, it is recommended that you can also receive intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment, such as using cephalosporin drugs like cefuroxime. Ear drops can be used during the inflammatory period, but it is advised not to use them for a long time.Otitis media in children can cause significant harm to patients. It is recommended that patients seek timely treatment from a specialized department under the guidance of a doctor. Daily activities can be appropriately performed, but attention should be paid to preventing "overheating" (excessive internal heat). We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
