Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. This week, the child said her ears hurt. Additionally, it was found that the earwax was purulent, a bit yellow, and it seemed that she had no appetite and felt weak. Please ask: How can otitis media with yellow earwax 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. While taking the medication, some local treatments can also be applied, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child's ear pain is severe, mild pain relievers can be used in moderation. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing drugs can be given. If the symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. If your child has a problem with a ruptured eardrum, it is necessary to promptly seek medical treatment at the hospital for surgery. Parents should also pay attention to taking protective measures for the child to prevent the recurrence of otitis media.
