Patient's question:
Girl baby 3 years old, just started kindergarten. In recent days, the child has been scratching her ears and saying they itch. It has been noticed that yellow earwax is leaking out. At the same time, she seems to have no appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How is it better to treat otitis media with yellow discharge in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used in clinical treatment of pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. Local drug treatment can be used, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can also be chosen. If the child's ear pain is severe, it is recommended to give some pain-relieving medication based on the situation. If the child has a fever, parents can give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If the patient develops severe symptoms, such as a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to seek surgical treatment in the hospital promptly. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
