Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 4 years old, recently, the child told me that her ears are a bit painful. Additionally, there is occasionally a yellow liquid discharge, and her appetite is also not good, and her throat is uncomfortable. Please ask: How should the pus from otitis media in children be treated better?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children under the guidance of a doctor to alleviate inflammation symptoms. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the child primarily exhibits ear pain, it is advisable to administer appropriate pain relievers to ease the discomfort. If the child also has a high fever, they can take fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is crucial to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a perforated eardrum, immediate hospital treatment for surgery is necessary. During the treatment period, maintain a light diet, primarily consisting of liquid foods.
