Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 6 years old. Recently, the child has said that his ears hurt, and occasionally, there is also yellow fluid leaking out. Additionally, he seems to have no appetite and feels very weak. Question: How should otitis media with purulent earwax be treated 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. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Otitis media is prone to recurrence, so if there is a perforation of the eardrum, it should be treated in a timely manner. Finally, we hope parents can take this condition seriously, seek medical treatment early, and also pay attention to related prevention and health care measures.
