Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 3 years old. In recent days, the child told me her ears are a bit painful. Additionally, there is a lot of yellow earwax, and accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How is it better to treat the child's otitis media with purulent earwax?Doctor's answer:
Treatment should be tailored to the child's symptoms, administering anti-inflammatory medications. Local treatments can also be used, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. In cases of ear pain, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media. Additionally, if there is a perforation of the eardrum, timely surgery is required. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
