Female baby, currently 2 years old. In the past few days, the child's ears have been a bit sore. Additionally, there is a lot of yellow earwax, and the ears are buzzing. There is also a low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with purulent earwax be treated in children?

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. If the child's ear pain is severe, appropriate analgesic medication should also be given. If high fever is present, medication should be administered based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media. Furthermore, if a eardrum perforation occurs, timely surgical treatment is necessary. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
