Patient's question:
Boy, already 5 years old, recently, the child's ears have been a bit sore. In the morning, it was found that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and there was a buzzing sound in the ears, and a bit of low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media in children be treated for ear pain.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets otitis media, you can first use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the child's ear pain and yellow discharge symptoms are severe, it is recommended to choose some pain-relieving drugs to alleviate the symptoms. 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 can consider surgical treatment for the child. Parents should also pay attention to preventive measures to avoid the recurrence of otitis media.
