Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old. Recently, the child said her ears were itchy and painful. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax. Additionally, she has some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow earwax be treated?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric otitis media, it is advisable to give the child some antibiotics for symptomatic treatment, which is relatively effective. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate pain-relieving medication can be given. If the child has a high fever, some fever-reducing medication should be used in moderation. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the child develops a perforated eardrum, it is recommended to go to the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
