Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 1 year old. These past few days, the child told me his ears are a bit painful. In the morning, there is occasionally yellowish fluid discharge, and it seems he has no appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media with pus be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications. Local medication can also be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When a child's ear pain is severe, mild analgesics can be used in moderation. If the child has a high fever, fever-reducing medication should be used appropriately. If the condition is severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If a child develops a eardrum perforation, they should be taken to the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
