Children with otitis media and difficulty hearing how should they be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 5 years old. In recent days, the child has been scratching her ears and saying they itch. In the morning, some yellow earwax has been leaking out, accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How can otitis media in children be effectively treated when they can't hear clearly?

Doctor's answer:

To effectively treat otitis media, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor according to symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for children. If ear pain occurs, you can also give children pain relievers. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be used based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, seek medical attention immediately. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in appropriate exercise to boost the immune system and prevent recurrence.
