Patient's question:
My daughter is one year old. This week, the child said her ears hurt. Upon observation, I noticed the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow. Additionally, she seems to have little appetite and feels weak. Please advise: How should the treatment for otitis media, with ear fullness and pain, be carried out effectively for children?Doctor's answer:
The treatment for pediatric otitis media can involve symptomatic medications based on the child's symptoms, and local treatments can also be applied, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. In cases of ear pain, pain relievers can be given to the child as well. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medications can be administered. If the condition does not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, parents may consider surgical treatment for the child.，。
