Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 4 years old. Recently, his ears have been a bit sore. Additionally, his earwax is a bit thick and yellow, and he also has some low fever. Please ask: How should middle ear infection and tinnitus in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
The treatment for pediatric otitis media can involve using symptomatic medications based on the child's symptoms, or combining some local treatment methods, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child's ear pain is severe, pain-relieving medications can be used in moderation. If the child also has a high fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child experiences severe conditions, such as a tympanic membrane perforation, immediate treatment is required. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
