Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 2 years old. Recently, the child said her ears hurt. In the morning, the earwax was a bit thick and yellow, accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should the treatment be for otitis media with yellow earwax in the child?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, they can first use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can also be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. For children with prominent ear pain symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a fever, they can take some fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, they should seek medical attention as soon as possible. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a perforated eardrum, they need to go to the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
