Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 4 years old. Recently, the child has said her ears hurt. In the morning, yellow earwax has been flowing out. Additionally, it seems she has no appetite and feels very weak.：How can she be treated effectively for otitis media with yellow fluid in her ears?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it's otitis media in children, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics can be given, which is quite effective. Local medication can also be used, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. If the child has severe ear pain and yellow discharge, it is recommended to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. If the child has a high fever, appropriate fever-reducing medication should be used. If the condition is severe, prompt medical attention is necessary.In addition to these drug treatments, if the child's condition is serious and involves a perforated eardrum, medical treatment through surgery is required at the hospital. During this period, ensure the child gets sufficient rest and eats plenty of vegetables and fruits.
