Patient's question:
My little girl is 2 years old. Recently, she has been saying that her ears are itchy and painful. Additionally, there is occasionally yellow liquid discharge, and she seems to have no appetite and feels very weak. I would like to ask: How should otitis media with ear itching be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics, and some local treatment methods can also be combined, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the symptoms are primarily ear pain, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If the child has a high fever, appropriate fever-reducing medication should be used. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If your child has a perforated eardrum, it is necessary to visit the hospital promptly for surgical treatment. During this time, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
