Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 6 years old. This week, the child told me his ear hurts a little. He noticed that occasionally there is also yellow fluid leaking out. Additionally, his ear is buzzing, and he has a slightly low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear pain be diagnosed and treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can also be used. When the child's ear pain is severe, a moderate amount of pain-relieving medication can be used. If high fever accompanies the condition, medication should be used according to the child's symptoms. In severe cases, seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. If there is a condition of eardrum perforation, parents may consider surgical treatment for the child. During the treatment period, maintain a light diet and prioritize a liquid diet.
