Patient's question:
Boys, who are already 3 years old, have recently been scratching their ears, saying they feel itchy. In the morning, there is occasionally a yellowish liquid discharge, accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with itchy ears be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for the treatment of otitis media and can be selected accordingly. Local medication can be administered, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. When a child's ear pain is severe, mild pain relievers can be used in moderation. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be taken. 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 surgical treatment is necessary. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
