Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 1 year old. In recent days, the child's ears have been a bit painful. Additionally, it was found that the earwax is purulent, slightly yellow, and accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should the treatment be for otitis media and tinnitus in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication should be given based on the child's symptoms. Local treatment methods can also be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be administered. If the child has a high fever, antipyretic drugs should be used in moderation. If the condition is serious, emergency medical attention is necessary. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media. Additionally, if a tympanic membrane perforation occurs, surgical treatment should be performed promptly. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
