Patient's question:
Boy, already 2 years old, recently, the child told me that his ears are a bit sore. He noticed that there is some yellow earwax coming out, and at the same time, his ears are buzzing, and he has a slightly low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with yellow discharge in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it's otitis media in children, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics can be effective. While taking medication, local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can also be applied. When the child experiences severe ear pain, mild pain relievers can be used in moderation. If high fever accompanies the condition, medication should be administered based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, it's important to seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. These are some of the common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a perforated eardrum, surgical treatment should be performed promptly at the hospital. During treatment, it's advisable to maintain a light diet and focus on liquid foods.
