Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 9 years old, these days, the child's ears are a bit sore, and also, yellow earwax is flowing out, accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear pain be treated in children.Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric otitis media first, parents can give their child anti-inflammatory medication to eat. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed, using anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. Depending on the child's condition, pain relievers can also be given, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate the pain. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be used according to the child's symptoms. In severe cases, please go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. If the patient develops severe symptoms, such as a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to seek timely surgical treatment at the hospital. Parents should also pay attention to taking preventive measures for their children to avoid the recurrence of otitis media.
