Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 9 years old. This week, the child has a slight earache, and it has been discovered that the earwax is purulent, slightly yellow, and appetite is also poor, with a sore throat as well. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with purulent earwax in children.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. Local medication can also be used, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. If the child's main symptom is ear pain, it is advisable for parents to give appropriate pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child also has a fever, they can take some fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. If your child has a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to go to the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and focus on liquid food during the treatment period.
