How to treat otitis media in children effectively to improve hearing clarity

Patient's question:

Female baby, only 5 years old, this week, the child's ears are a bit painful. Additionally, it was found that the earwax is purulent, a bit yellow, and accompanied by headache and fever. Please ask: How can we effectively treat otitis media where the child cannot hear clearly?

Doctor's answer:

When it comes to treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication should be given based on the child's symptoms. Parents can use topical anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. For children with prominent ear pain symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a fever, parents can give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If your child has a problem with a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to go to the hospital for surgery in a timely manner. During this period, make sure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
