Patient's question:
My little girl, who is 4 years old, told me this week that her ears hurt a little. I noticed that there was a lot of yellow earwax, and her ears were buzzing. She also had a slightly low fever. I am asking: How should we effectively treat otitis media with ear fullness and pain in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating otitis media and can be selected as needed. Bacterial culture of ear discharge can be performed, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used based on the test results. If the ear pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. These methods are commonly used for treating otitis media. Additionally, if there is a perforation of the eardrum, timely surgical treatment is required. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
