Patient's question:
Boy, already 7 years old. Recently, the child's ears have been a bit sore. He noticed that the earwax is a bit thick and yellowish. Additionally, there is some low fever. Question: How to treat otitis media and tinnitus in the child.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be used appropriately, and they can be combined with some local treatment methods, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops, which can also be supplemented with pain relievers based on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate the suffering. Additionally, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing medications can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a case of eardrum perforation, parents can consider surgical treatment for the child. It is important to maintain a light diet during daily life, and a liquid diet should be primarily followed during the treatment period.
