Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 8 years old, these days, the child told me her ears are a little painful, in the morning, earwax is a bit thick and yellowish, and accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How to treat children's otitis media with itchy ears.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used in clinical treatment of pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. Pain relief medication can also be given depending on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken. However, for high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly. If your child develops a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to go to the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. During treatment, attention should also be paid to arranging a light diet for the child and enhancing nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
