Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old, recently, the child has been scratching his ears and complaining of itching. It has been noticed that the earwax is a bit thick and yellowish. Additionally, his appetite is not good, and his throat feels uncomfortable. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with ear fullness and pain in children well.Doctor's answer:
To effectively treat otitis media, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor based on symptoms. Local treatment can also be used, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops for babies. Additionally, pain relievers can be given to children, especially when the ear pain is severe, to alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, seek medical attention promptly. Otitis media is prone to recurring, so if there is a perforated eardrum, it should be treated promptly. During treatment, maintain a light diet and focus on liquid foods.
