Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 1 year old. Recently, the child told me her ears are a bit sore. I noticed that the earwax is a bit thick and yellow, and her ears are buzzing a bit. She also has a slight fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear fullness and pain be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used in clinical treatment of pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose based on symptoms. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. When there is ear pain, pain relievers can also be given to children. If the child has a high fever, appropriate dosage of fever-reducing medication should be used. If the condition is severe, prompt medical attention is necessary. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media currently. Additionally, if there is a eardrum perforation, surgical treatment should be performed in a timely manner. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest schedule for the child to help the illness recover early.
