Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 3 years old. This week, the child told me his ears are a little painful. Additionally, yellow liquid occasionally leaks out, and he also has a headache and fever. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with yellow earwax in children?Doctor's answer:
It is appropriate to use some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment for their children. For children with significant ear pain symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a high fever, fever-reducing medication should be used as needed. If the condition is severe, prompt medical attention is required. If the patient exhibits severe symptoms, such as a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to seek immediate hospital treatment for surgery. While being treated, it is important to ensure the child follows a light diet and receives adequate nutritional support to aid in early recovery.
