Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 2 years old. Recently, the child told me her ears are a bit painful. Additionally, her earwax is a bit thick and yellow. Also, her appetite is not good, and her throat feels uncomfortable. Please ask: How is it better to treat otitis media and tinnitus in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used in the treatment of otitis media and can be selected as appropriate. They can also be combined with local treatment methods, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. When a child has severe ear pain, a small amount of pain-relieving medication can also be used. If the child has a fever, parents can give them fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If your child has a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, focusing on a light diet, and to ensure they get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
