Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 8 years old. This week, the child said his ears are itchy and painful. He noticed that occasionally there is also yellow fluid leaking out, accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with pus discharge be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, anti-inflammatory drugs can be used symptomatically. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, such as applying anti-inflammatory ear drops to the child. For children with severe ear pain, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a high fever, appropriate doses of fever-reducing medication should be administered. In severe cases, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If your child develops a eardrum perforation, it is essential to go to the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in appropriate exercise to boost the immune system and prevent recurrence.
