Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 1 year old, this week, her ears have been a bit sore. In the morning, the earwax was a bit thick and yellowish, and it seems she has no appetite and feels very weak. Could you please tell me: How should pediatric otitis media and tinnitus be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
First, to treat children's otitis media, parents can give their children some anti-inflammatory drugs. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. If the child's ear pain and yellow discharge are severe, it is recommended to use some pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. Moreover, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing medications can also be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital promptly for surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest time.
