Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 6 years old. In recent days, the child has been scratching her ears and saying they itch. Additionally, there is a lot of yellow earwax, and she hears a buzzing sound in her ears. She also has a slightly low fever. Question: How should otitis media with yellow discharge be treated in children for effective recovery?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is otitis media in children, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics can be given to the child, which is quite effective. In addition, local treatment can also be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. If the symptoms are primarily ear pain, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be used based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child experiences severe conditions, such as a tympanic membrane perforation, prompt medical treatment is necessary. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children for medical treatment as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures during daily life.
