Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old. In recent days, the child has said her ears are itchy and painful, and occasionally, yellow liquid also flows out. At the same time, she has a headache and fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge be treated for the child?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Ear secretion bacterial culture can be conducted, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used based on the test results. When the child's ear pain is severe, a small amount of pain-relieving medication can also be used. If the child has a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the patient exhibits severe symptoms, such as a perforated eardrum, immediate medical treatment in a hospital is necessary. During the treatment period, attention should also be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring adequate rest.
