Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 2 years old. These days, the child has been scratching his ears, saying they itch. Additionally, there is occasionally a yellowish fluid discharge, and his ears buzz. He also has a slightly low fever. Please ask: How to treat hearing loss in children due to otitis media.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric otitis media, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics can be given to the child, which is relatively effective. Local medication can be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops, or pain relievers can be given based on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate the discomfort. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be used according to the child's symptoms. In severe cases, please seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible.In addition to the above medication and treatment methods, if the child shows severe symptoms, such as a tympanic membrane perforation, timely treatment is required. During the treatment period, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, and the diet should be light. Rest should also be ensured to avoid fatigue.
