A child has otitis media with yellow fluid in the ear. How should it be treated well?

Patient's question:

Boy, already 5 years old, this week, the child's ears are a bit sore. In the morning, it was found that the earwax is purulent, a bit yellow, and accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow fluid in the child's ear be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric otitis media first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medications. If the child's condition is severe, they can also use some local treatments, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has severe ear pain, it is recommended to administer pain relievers based on the situation. If the child has a high fever, fever-reducing medication should be used cautiously. If the condition is severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child develops severe conditions, such as a ruptured eardrum, immediate medical treatment is required. Pay attention to a light diet, and during the treatment period, a liquid diet should be followed.
