Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 9 years old. In recent days, the child said his ears hurt. In the morning, the earwax was a bit thick and slightly yellow, and there was a buzzing sound in the ears. There was also a slight fever. Please ask: How should we treat the child's otitis media and tinnitus?Doctor's answer:
When it comes to treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medications should be given according to the child's symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments can also be applied, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is severe, it is acceptable to use pain-relieving medications in moderation. Additionally, if fever is present, fever-reducing drugs can be administered. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child's condition worsens severely, such as in cases of eardrum perforation, timely medical treatment is required. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the illness recover as quickly as possible.
