Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 9 years old. This week, the child's ears have been a bit painful. In the morning, the earwax was slightly thick and yellowish. Additionally, she seems to have no appetite and is also very weak. Please ask: How should otitis media with purulent earwax be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used appropriately. While taking medication, local treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can also be administered. If the child's ear pain is severe, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. If the child also has high fever, some fever-reducing medication should be used in moderation. If the condition is severe, prompt medical attention is necessary. The above methods are commonly used for treating otitis media currently. Additionally, if there is a case of a perforated eardrum, surgical treatment should be administered promptly. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and daily routine for the child to help the illness recover as soon as possible.
