Patient's question:
My son is one year old. Recently, he has been complaining that his ears are itchy and painful. In the morning, yellow earwax has been leaking out, and it seems that he has no appetite and is also very weak. Could you please tell me how to treat otitis media and tinnitus in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medication. You can also perform a bacterial culture of the ear secretions. Based on the test results, use anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has ear pain, you can also give them pain relief medication. If the child has a high fever, you should use fever-reducing medication as appropriate. If the condition is severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or if the eardrum has already perforated, surgical treatment should be performed in a timely manner. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take the child to seek medical treatment early, and also pay attention to doing well in related prevention and health care work in daily life.
