Patient's question:
My little girl is 3 years old. This week, the child said her ears are itchy and painful. Upon examination, I noticed that the earwax is purulent, a bit yellow, and there is a buzzing sound in her ears. She also has a slight fever. Please ask: How can my child's otitis media and tinnitus be treated well?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents, under the guidance of a doctor, choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their child to alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Additionally, local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used. If the child's ear pain is severe, a small amount of pain-relieving medication can be administered. If the child has a fever, parents can give them medications with fever-reducing properties. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child experiences serious conditions such as a ruptured eardrum, timely medical treatment is necessary. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
