Patient's question:
Boy, 10 years old, in primary school, recently, the child said his ears hurt. Upon examination, it was found that the earwax was purulent, slightly yellow, accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric otitis media can use symptomatic medications based on the child's symptoms. Local medication can be chosen, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has severe ear pain and yellow discharge, it is recommended to use pain-relieving medications to alleviate symptoms. If the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or if a tympanic membrane perforation has occurred, surgical treatment should be performed in a timely manner.，。
