Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 3 years old, this week, the child said her ears felt itchy and painful. Also, the earwax was a bit thick and slightly yellow. Also, it seems she has no appetite and feels very weak. Please ask: How can otitis media with ear itching be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
It is appropriate to use some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for local treatment. If the child's ear pain is severe, a small amount of pain reliever can be used. Additionally, if the child has a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media currently. Moreover, if there is a perforation of the eardrum, it is necessary to undergo timely surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
