Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 3 years old, recently, the child's ears have been a bit painful. In the morning, the earwax was a bit thick and slightly yellow. Also, it seems to have no appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How is it better to treat otitis media and tinnitus in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used for clinical treatment of pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose them based on the symptoms. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be applied, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child's ear pain is severe, pain-relieving medication can be used in moderation. If the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought promptly. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media currently. Additionally, if there is a case of eardrum perforation, surgical treatment should be administered in a timely manner. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light and simple foods. Rest is also crucial, and fatigue should be avoided.
