Is a six-year-old child with a cold and fever having a severe ear infection?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Your condition is caused by otitis media, which is a chronic inflammation of the middle ear mucosa and eardrum. You can use ear drops such as chloramphenicol and cortisol, or ofloxacin ear drops. If the condition is severe, you can also take cefixime capsules orally.
