Patient's question:
Boy, already 5 years old, recently, the child told me his ears are a little painful. Upon examination, it was found that the earwax is purulent, a little yellow, and the ears are buzzing. There is also a low-grade fever. Please ask: How is it best to treat muffled hearing from otitis media in children?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication should be given according to the child's symptoms. Local medication can be used, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has a high fever, antipyretic medication should be used cautiously. If the condition is serious, immediate medical attention is necessary. If the child has a tympanic membrane perforation, it is recommended to seek surgical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be the primary focus during treatment.
