How to treat a child's middle ear infection and tinnitus

Patient's question:

My boy, who is 7 years old, has been scratching his ears recently and complaining of itching. In the morning, the earwax was a bit thick and yellowish, and he also seems to have little appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How is it treated for my child's otitis media and tinnitus?

Doctor's answer:

When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications, or local medications can be used, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for babies. If the child's main symptom is ear pain, it is recommended that parents can appropriately give some pain relievers to alleviate it. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be used based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, please go to the hospital as soon as possible for treatment. The above methods are commonly used in the treatment of otitis media currently. In addition, if there is a case of eardrum perforation, it needs to be treated with surgery in a timely manner. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to arranging reasonable diet and rest habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
