Patient's question:
Boy, just turned one year old. This week, the child has been scratching his ears and complaining of itching. In the morning, there is occasionally yellow fluid discharge, accompanied by headache and fever. Please ask: How should otitis media and tinnitus be treated in the child?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, you can give children some symptomatic antibiotic medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments can also be combined, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is intense, it is recommended to give pain relief medication based on the situation. If the child has a fever, parents can give them some fever-reducing medications or take them to the hospital immediately. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child's condition worsens severely, such as in the case of a eardrum perforation, it needs to be treated promptly. After the condition improves, it is advisable to let the child engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
