Patient's question:
Son, at eleven months and five and a half months, it was discovered that there was a lot of smegma with a bad odor in the left ear, and it was itchy. A CT scan showed no problems. At eight months, there was white liquid leaking from the ear, and there was an infection outside the ear canal with small bumps that were itchy.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the possibility of otitis media is relatively high. Since I cannot see the baby, it is best to take the baby to the hospital for examination. Once it is confirmed to be otitis media, it is necessary to provide timely anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatment, otherwise it may lead to complications.Pediatric ear, nose, and throat diseases have a significant impact on patients. It is recommended that patients seek timely treatment from a specialized department under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is advisable to drink more water and pay more attention to dietary issues. I hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
