Patient's question:
Little girl, only 6 years old, this week, the child's ears are a bit sore, in the morning, there is occasionally a yellowish liquid leaking out, and the ears are buzzing, a bit of a low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear fullness and pain be diagnosed and treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be used. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be performed, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has severe ear pain and yellow discharge, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be administered based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. If there is a possibility of a tympanic membrane perforation, parents can consider surgical treatment for the child. After the condition improves, it is recommended to let the child engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
