How to diagnose and treat ear pain from otitis media in children

Patient's question:

Boys, they are already 5 years old. In recent days, the child said that their ears hurt. It is noticed that the earwax is a bit thick and yellow, and there is a buzzing sound in the ear. Also, there is a slight fever. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat otitis media with ear pain in children.

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets otitis media, anti-inflammatory drugs can be used symptomatically. In addition, local treatment can also be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. If the symptoms are mainly ear pain, analgesics can be considered. If the child has a high fever, fever-reducing medication should be used appropriately. If it is severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child has severe conditions, such as a perforated eardrum, timely treatment is required. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging a reasonable diet and sleep habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
