Doctor's answer:

If the child gets otitis media, first use some symptomatic antibiotic drugs. If the child's condition is severe, local treatment can also be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child has ear pain, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has a high fever, fever-reducing drugs should be used accordingly. If it is serious, seek medical attention as soon as possible. In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child has a severe condition, such as a eardrum perforation, it needs to be treated in a timely manner. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging a light diet for the child, enhancing nutritional supplementation, and helping to recover early.
