Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 9 years old. Recently, the child said her ears hurt, and it was noticed that yellow earwax was coming out. At the same time, she seems to have no appetite and is very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media with purulent earwax be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
To effectively treat otitis media, you can consult a doctor for symptomatic treatment and choose some anti-inflammatory medications. If the child's condition is severe, you can also use local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child has severe ear pain, you can moderately use pain-relieving medication. If the child has a high fever, it is recommended to use some fever-reducing drugs. If the condition is serious, seek medical attention as soon as possible. If your child develops a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital promptly for surgical treatment. Parents should also pay attention to protective measures to prevent the recurrence of otitis media.
