Patient's question:
Boy, he is already one year old. These past few days, the child has had a slightly sore ear. Upon noticing, he found that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and his appetite is also not good, his throat is also uncomfortable. Please ask: How to treat otitis media with yellow earwax in children.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used in clinical treatment for pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be applied, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain and yellow discharge are severe, it is recommended to use pain relief medication to alleviate symptoms. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing drugs can be given, or the child should be taken to the hospital immediately. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child develops a tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to go to the hospital for surgical treatment in a timely manner. During this period, ensure the child gets sufficient rest and eats more vegetables and fruits.
