Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 4 years old. Recently, the child said his ears hurt. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax, and his ears were buzzing. He also had a slight fever. Please ask: How should pediatric otitis media and tinnitus be treated for good results?Doctor's answer:
First, to treat pediatric otitis media, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local treatment can be administered by choosing anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child primarily exhibits ear pain symptoms, it is advisable for parents to provide appropriate pain relief medication. If the child has a fever, they can be given fever-reducing medication or taken to the hospital immediately. In cases of a tympanic membrane perforation, surgical treatment for the child should be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid further symptoms from worsening due to catching a cold.
