Patient's question:
Boy, already 9 years old. In recent days, the child said his ears hurt. Also, it was found that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and the ears were buzzing, with a slight fever. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with yellow earwax in children.Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has severe ear pain, it is suggested to give pain relievers based on the situation. Additionally, if the child has a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.Besides the above drug treatments, if the child develops severe conditions, such as a perforated eardrum, prompt treatment is required. Parents should also pay attention to preventive measures to avoid the recurrence of otitis media.
