Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 8 years old. These days, her ears are a bit painful, and the earwax is a bit thick and yellowish. Additionally, she has a headache and fever. Please ask: How should otitis media and tinnitus in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, you can first use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. While taking the medication, you can also perform some local treatments, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is severe, it is recommended to give some pain relievers based on the situation. If the child also has a high fever, you can consider taking fever-reducing medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the child develops a eardrum perforation, it is advised to go to the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
