Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 years old. Recently, the child has been scratching his ears and complaining of itching. In the morning, the earwax is a bit thick and yellowish, and at the same time, there is a buzzing sensation in the ears and a slight fever. Please ask: How should I treat yellow discharge from otitis media in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Local medication can be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a high fever, appropriate fever-reducing medication should be used in moderation. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Otitis media is characterized by recurrent episodes. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, it is necessary to seek treatment promptly. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and ensure adequate nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
