Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 3 years old. This week, the child told me his ears hurt a bit. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax, accompanied by a headache and fever. Please ask: If the child has otitis media with yellow fluid in the ear, how should it be treated properly.Doctor's answer:
It is appropriate to use some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs. Local medication can be applied, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be selected. If the child's ear pain and yellow discharge are severe, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate symptoms. If the child has a fever, parents can give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If the child develops a eardrum perforation, it is important to seek surgical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. Lastly, we hope parents can take this disease seriously, bring their child to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
