Children with otitis media with yellow discharge, how should they be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 8 years old. This week, my child's ears have been a bit sore, and the earwax is a bit thick and yellowish. At the same time, it seems like he has no appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge be treated effectively in children?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets otitis media, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be used, and some local treatment methods can also be combined, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. Pain relievers can also be given according to the child's condition, especially when the ear pain is severe, which can help alleviate the pain. If accompanied by high fever, medications should be used based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. If the patient exhibits severe symptoms, such as a perforated eardrum, timely medical surgery is required. Finally, we hope parents can take this disease seriously and take their children to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, proper prevention and health care measures should be taken in daily life.
