Patient's question:

Boys, who are already 7 years old, this week, the child told me that his ears are a little sore, in the morning, it was found that earwax is purulent, a bit yellow, and accompanied by headache and fever, please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge in children be treated.

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. You can also combine it with some local treatment methods, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is severe, you can also use some pain-relieving medication in moderation. If the child has a fever, parents can give them some fever-reducing medication. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If your child has a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to go to the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. During this period, make sure the child gets enough rest and eats more fruits and vegetables.
