Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 6 years old. In recent days, the child told me that her ears hurt a little. Additionally, she noticed that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and the ears were buzzing. There's also a slight fever. Please ask: How should we treat the case where the child's otitis media is discharging yellow fluid?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents, under the guidance of a doctor, choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs for their children to alleviate inflammatory symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain and yellow discharge are severe, it is advisable to use pain relievers to relieve symptoms. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be administered based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, please seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. If your child develops a ruptured eardrum, it is necessary to seek medical attention and surgery promptly. Finally, we hope parents can take this condition seriously, bring their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
