Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. Recently, the child has said that his ears are itchy and painful. Additionally, there is a lot of yellow earwax, accompanied by headache and fever. Question: How can otitis media with ear fullness and pain be treated effectively in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be used. Local medication can be administered, such as choosing anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has a fever, parents can give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. In addition to these medication methods, if the child's condition is severe and a eardrum perforation occurs, medical treatment in the hospital is required. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover early.
