Patient's question:
Female baby, only 9 years old, this week, the child's ears are a bit sore, and it was noticed that occasionally there is also yellow liquid flowing out. At the same time, it seems that there is no appetite and she is very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow fluid in the ear be treated.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, anti-inflammatory drugs can be used symptomatically. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can also be combined, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate the suffering. If the child has a fever, some fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Otitis media is characterized by recurrent episodes. If there is a perforated eardrum, it needs to be treated promptly. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child is well-warmed to prevent symptoms from worsening due to catching a cold.
