How to treat ear pain from otitis media in children for good effect

Patient's question:

Boy, 11 years old, in primary school. This week, the child said his ears hurt. In the morning, there was occasionally yellow liquid discharge, accompanied by some low fever. Question: How can otitis media with ear pain be treated effectively in children?

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed using anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child's ear pain is severe, a small amount of pain relieving medication can be used appropriately. If the child has a high fever, antipyretic medication should be used cautiously. If the condition is severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. Multiple acute severe episodes or the presence of eardrum perforation require timely surgical intervention. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
