Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. In recent days, her ears have been a bit painful, and there is also some yellow earwax discharge. Additionally, she seems to have little appetite and is very weak. Please ask: How is it better to treat otitis media and itchy ears in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be used appropriately, or topical medications can be applied. For example, anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used for babies. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can also be given. Additionally, if the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child exhibits symptoms of a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment. During treatment, it is important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
