Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 2 years old. Recently, he has had some ear pain. In the morning, there is occasionally a yellow discharge. Additionally, his appetite is not good, and his throat is uncomfortable. Please advise: How is it best to treat otitis media with yellow discharge in children?Doctor's answer:
You can appropriately use some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, or apply topical medication, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the baby. If the symptoms are primarily ear pain, you may consider giving pain-relieving medication. If the child has a fever, you can take fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child has a eardrum perforation, it is recommended to go to the hospital for surgery. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to related prevention and health care work.
