Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 9 years old. Recently, the child has been scratching his ears and complaining of itching. In the morning, the earwax was a bit thick and slightly yellow, and accompanied by a headache and fever. Please ask: How should otitis media and tinnitus be treated properly in children.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, you can give children some symptomatic antibiotic medications, use topical medications, apply anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment, or provide pain relievers based on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate the suffering. If the child has a fever, you can give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child's condition worsens and there is a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to seek surgical treatment at the hospital. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
