Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old. In the past few days, the child has been scratching her ears and saying they itch. Additionally, there is occasional yellow liquid discharge, and her ears buzz. She also has a slightly low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media and tinnitus in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
When it comes to treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medications should be given based on the child's symptoms. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. If the child's ear pain is severe, it is recommended to provide pain-relieving medication based on the situation. If the child has a high fever, medications should be used according to the child's symptoms. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention at the hospital as soon as possible. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media. Additionally, if a eardrum perforation occurs, it requires timely surgical treatment. Parents should also pay attention to protective measures for the child to prevent recurrent otitis media.
