Patient's question:
My little boy is 2 years old. Recently, he said his ears hurt. I noticed that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and he also had a headache and fever. Please ask: How can I effectively treat my child's otitis media and tinnitus?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used appropriately. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment for the child. For children with obvious ear pain symptoms, analgesic drugs can be used. If accompanied by high fever, medications should be used based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. Otitis media has a characteristic of recurring episodes. If there is a case of eardrum perforation, timely treatment is necessary. During the treatment period, attention should also be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring sufficient rest time.
