Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old. Recently, the child has said her ears are itchy and painful. Additionally, she has a lot of yellow earwax, and it seems she has no appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How should middle ear infections with ear pain be treated effectively for children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, first of all, they can use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment for the child. For children with obvious ear pain symptoms, they can take some pain-relieving medication. If the child has a high fever, they should take fever-reducing medication in appropriate amounts. If it's severe, they need to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a situation of eardrum perforation, parents can consider surgical treatment for the child. At the same time, they should also pay attention to arranging a reasonable diet and rest habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
