Patient's question:
Boy, 8 years old, in primary school. This week, the child said his ears hurt. In the morning, it was found that the earwax was purulent, slightly yellow, and there was a humming sound in the ears. There was also a slight fever. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with yellow discharge in children's ears.Doctor's answer:
If a child develops otitis media, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be used. Additionally, local treatments can be administered, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can also be given. Some children may also experience fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If the condition does not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. Otitis media has a tendency to recur, and if there is a case of eardrum perforation, it is necessary to receive timely treatment. Meanwhile, it is also important to ensure the child has a balanced diet and proper rest habits to aid in early recovery.
