Patient's question:
Boy, already 6 years old, these days, the child's ears are a bit painful, in the morning, there is a lot of yellow earwax, also accompanied by headache and fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear itching be diagnosed and treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, anti-inflammatory drugs can be used symptomatically. Local medication can be administered, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be chosen. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child has a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, surgical treatment for the child can be considered. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
