Patient's question:
Boy, he is already one year old. In recent days, the child said his ears are itchy and painful. He noticed that there is yellow earwax flowing out. At the same time, his appetite is not good, and his throat is also uncomfortable. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear fullness and pain be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents, under the guidance of a doctor, choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children to alleviate inflammatory symptoms. They can also complement some local treatment methods, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for treatment. If the child's ear pain is severe, a small amount of pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there is a possibility of a tympanic membrane perforation, parents may consider surgical treatment for their child. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
