How should middle ear infection and tinnitus in children be treated better?

Patient's question:

Female baby, currently 7 years old. In the past few days, the child told me her ears are a bit sore. Additionally, she has found that her earwax is purulent, a bit yellow, and at the same time, it seems she has little appetite and is also very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media and tinnitus in children be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs should be given based on the child's symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can be combined, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has ear pain, appropriate pain-relieving medication can be given. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be administered. In severe cases, prompt medical attention should be sought. In addition to these medications and treatment methods, if the child exhibits severe conditions, such as a perforated eardrum, immediate medical treatment is necessary. During the treatment period, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
