Patient's question:
Boys, they are already 3 years old. This week, the child said his ears hurt. In the morning, I found that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and his appetite was also poor, and his throat was uncomfortable. Please ask: How should otitis media with itchy ears be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
To treat otitis media effectively, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments can also be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child's ear pain is severe, you can also use pain-relieving medication in moderation. Additionally, if the child has a fever, you can take some fever-reducing drugs. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child's condition worsens severely, such as in the case of a tympanic membrane perforation, immediate treatment is required. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional intake to help them recover more quickly.
