Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 1 year old. In recent days, her ears have been a bit painful. Additionally, her earwax is a bit thick and yellow. She also has a headache and a fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow fluid in the ears be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. It can also be combined with some local treatment methods, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. If the child's ear pain and yellow discharge symptoms are severe, it is recommended to use some pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If the child has a fever, parents can give them some fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. The above methods are commonly used in the current treatment of otitis media. Additionally, if there is a case of a perforated eardrum, it needs to be treated with surgery in a timely manner. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
