Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old, these days, the child said his ears hurt. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax, and some low-grade fever accompanied it. Please ask: For middle ear infection and ear pain in children, what treatment is most effective?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, first, you can use some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. When the child's ear pain is severe, you can also use some pain-relieving medication in moderation. If the child has a fever, you can give them some fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If your child has a problem with a ruptured eardrum, it is necessary to go to the hospital for surgery in a timely manner. During the treatment period, pay attention to providing the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet primarily consisting of light foods. Also, make sure to get plenty of rest and avoid fatigue.
