Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 8 years old. Recently, the child has said her ears are itchy and painful. She noticed that the earwax is a bit thick and yellow, and her ears are buzzing, with a slight fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with itching in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate pain-relieving medication should be given. If the child has a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication. In serious cases, prompt medical attention should be sought. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
