Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old. Recently, the child said her ears hurt. In the morning, occasionally there was also yellow liquid coming out, and accompanied by some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with pus discharge be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used in clinical treatment of pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose based on the symptoms. Parents can use topical anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the symptoms are primarily ear pain, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing drugs can be administered. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought promptly. Otitis media is characterized by recurrent episodes. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, timely treatment is necessary. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the condition recover sooner.
