Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old. Recently, the child told me her ears are a bit painful. She noticed that there is some yellow earwax discharge, accompanied by a headache and fever.: How is it best to treat otitis media and tinnitus in children?Doctor's answer:
To effectively treat otitis media, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor based on the symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for children. If the symptoms are primarily ear pain, you may consider giving pain-relieving medication. If accompanied by high fever, medication should be used based on the child's symptoms. In severe cases, seek medical treatment at the hospital as soon as possible. If there is a possibility of a tympanic membrane perforation, parents may consider surgical treatment for their child. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
