Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 8 years old. This week, the child said her ears hurt. In the morning, she was found to have pus-like earwax, a bit yellow, and accompanied by headache and fever. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat otitis media in children with ear pain.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Local medication can be used, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be applied for treatment. For children with obvious ear pain symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. Additionally, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child develops a perforated eardrum, it is advised to go to the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. Parents should also pay attention to preventive measures for the child to avoid recurrent otitis media.
