Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 2 years old. This week, the child told me his ears are a bit painful. In the morning, there was yellow earwax discharge, and his ears were buzzing. He also had a slight fever. Please ask: How can otitis media and tinnitus in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children under the guidance of a doctor, which can alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Local medication can also be used, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. If the child’s ear pain is severe, they can be given pain relievers as needed. If the child also has a high fever, they can be given fever-reducing medication, but if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If your child develops a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm to prevent further aggravation of symptoms.
