Patient's question:
My little girl, she is 7 years old. This week, the child told me her ears hurt a bit. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax, and she also had a headache and a fever. Please ask: How should otitis media and tinnitus in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used appropriately. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can also be used. Pain in the ear can be relieved with pain medication. If the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or if the eardrum has already perforated, surgical treatment should be performed in a timely manner. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
