Patient's question:
My son is 8 years old. Recently, his ears have been a bit painful. In the morning, there is occasionally yellow liquid leaking out, and there's a buzzing sensation in his ears. He also has a slightly low fever. I would like to ask: How should I treat his otitis media with yellow earwax?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for children. If the ear pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. Moreover, if there is a fever, some antipyretic drugs 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 drug treatments, if the child develops a severe condition, such as a perforated eardrum, timely treatment is required. Pay attention to a light diet during the day, and primarily consume liquid foods during the treatment period.
