Child has otitis media and earwax is purulent, how to treat

Patient's question:

Girl baby, only 3 years old, recently, the child has been scratching her ears and saying they itch. Noticed that there is yellow earwax coming out. Also, her appetite is not good, and her throat feels uncomfortable. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with purulent earwax.

Doctor's answer:

To effectively treat otitis media, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor based on symptoms. Local treatment options include using anti-inflammatory ear drops. For children with significant ear pain, pain-relieving medication can be used. Additionally, if a fever is present, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
In addition to the above medication treatments, if the child's condition worsens significantly, such as in the case of a perforated eardrum, prompt medical treatment is necessary. At the same time, it is important to ensure the child maintains a balanced diet and proper sleep habits to help the condition recover more quickly.
