Patient's question:
Little girl, currently 2 years old. Recently, the child said her ears hurt. In the morning, there was a lot of yellow earwax, accompanied by a headache and fever. Please ask: How can otitis media with yellow discharge be treated effectively in children?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatment can also be performed using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has ear pain, pain relievers can also be given. If the child also has a high fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication and treatment methods, if the child experiences severe conditions, such as a perforated eardrum, timely treatment is necessary. It is important to maintain a light diet during daily life, and a liquid diet should be followed during the treatment period.
