Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 5 years old, recently, the child said her ears hurt. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax, and she also had some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear pain be diagnosed and treated in children?Doctor's answer:
To treat otitis media effectively, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor based on the symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments can also be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child has a fever, parents can provide fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. Otitis media has a tendency to recur, and if there is a eardrum perforation, it needs to be treated promptly. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
