Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 4 years old, these days, the child's ears are a bit sore. In the morning, it was found that the earwax was purulent, a little yellow, accompanied by headache and fever. Please ask: How should middle ear earwax be treated for good results?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it's otitis media in children, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics can be effective. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can also be used. Pain relievers can be given based on the child's condition, especially when the ear pain is intense, to help alleviate the discomfort. If the child also has a high fever, antipyretics can be administered as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If your child develops a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm to prevent further exacerbation of symptoms due to colds.
