Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 1 year old. In the past few days, the child said his ears hurt. It was noticed that yellow earwax was coming out. Additionally, there was some low-grade fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used appropriately, and can be combined with some local treatment methods, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child's ear pain is severe, a small amount of pain-relieving medication can also be used in moderation. If the child has a high fever, antipyretic drugs should be used accordingly. If the condition is severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the patient shows severe symptoms, such as a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment promptly. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
