Patient's question:
Boy, who is already 6 years old, has been scratching his ears these days, saying they itch. Additionally, the earwax is a bit thick and yellowish, and his ears are buzzing. He also has a low-grade fever. Please ask: If a child has otitis media with yellow discharge, what is the best treatment for it.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the child's ear pain is severe, pain-relieving medications can be used in moderation. If the child has high fever, fever-reducing drugs should be used appropriately. If the condition is severe, medical attention should be sought immediately. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a symptom of eardrum perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment. During the treatment period, attention should also be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring sufficient rest.
