Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 6 years old. This week, the child's ears have been a bit sore. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax. Also, it seems he has no appetite and is very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge be treated in children for better results?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used appropriately. An ear secretion bacterial culture can be performed, and anti-inflammatory ear drops should be used based on the test results. If the child has severe ear pain, it is recommended to give pain relief medication based on the situation. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. These methods are commonly used for treating otitis media currently. Additionally, if a tympanic membrane perforation occurs, it requires timely surgical treatment. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical attention promptly, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
