Patient's question:
Female baby, only 8 years old. Recently, the child told me her ears are a bit painful, and occasionally there is also yellow fluid leaking out. Additionally, she has some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow fluid in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
When it comes to treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs should be given based on the child's symptoms. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate analgesic medication can be provided. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If the symptoms do not improve, medical attention is necessary. If your child develops a tympanic membrane perforation, it is important to seek medical treatment and undergo surgery promptly. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help accelerate recovery.
