Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. This week, the child has been scratching her ears and complaining of itching. Additionally, the earwax is a bit thick and yellow, and she hears a buzzing sound in her ears. She also has a slightly low fever. Please ask: How should earwax be treated when she has otitis media and yellow earwax?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used appropriately, or topical medication can be applied, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the baby. In cases of ear pain, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the child develops a perforated eardrum, it is recommended to visit the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. During daily life, maintain a light diet, and during the treatment period, focus on liquid food.
