How to treat yellow fluid in the ear due to otitis media in children

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 6 years old. Recently, the child told me her ears hurt a bit. I noticed that the earwax was a bit thick and yellowish. Additionally, she has some low-grade fever. Could you please advise on how to treat otitis media with yellow fluid in children?

Doctor's answer:

When treating,inflammatory drugs should be given according to the child's symptoms, and some local treatment methods can also be combined, such as medicated ear drops for inflammation. Painkillers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when ear pain is severe, to help alleviate the pain. Some children may also have a fever at this time, and oral fever-reducing drugs can be given. If the condition cannot be relieved, it is necessary to seek medical attention. If your child has a problem with a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to go to the hospital in time for surgery. While being treated, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child and strengthen nutritional supplementation to help recover as soon as possible.
