My doll is three years old and there is still a large swelling next to its ear. What should I do?

Patient's question:

My doll is three years old and I noticed that there are still two large swollen areas on the sides of her ears. The next day, both sides were swollen too. I took her to the hospital, but I'm still worried because it hasn't improved much after three days. I realized that she went to the hospital right after coming down from school in the morning. It has been three days in total, and the doctor said it's mumps, also known as parotitis. I'm very scared. Do I still need any medication?
Previous Treatment and Effectiveness:
During the examination, it was said that in addition to sinusitis, there was some concern.
How to Help:
How should this illness be treated? What should I do? Her nose still occasionally bleeds sometimes.

Doctor's answer:

Measles is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by the measles virus. Enlarged parotid glands are the main clinical diagnostic feature, and it can lead to secondary neuron meningitis and pancreatitis. The main treatment involves drinking plenty of fluids, enhancing nursing isolation, and then applying cold compresses or taking Radix Isatidis orally.
If you have a nosebleed, it's not too related to this disease. It's recommended to have a complete blood count test to check how normal your platelets are. Then, a nasal mucosa examination should be performed.
