Patient's question:
Boys, already 9 years old, this week, the child's ears are a bit sore, and there is also yellow earwax discharge. Moreover, it is accompanied by a headache and fever. Question: How to diagnose and treat otitis media with yellow ear discharge in children.Doctor's answer:
To effectively treat otitis media, you can consult a doctor and choose appropriate anti-inflammatory medications under their guidance. Local treatments can be administered, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If a child has severe ear pain and yellow discharge, it is advisable to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If the child also has a high fever, they can be given fever-reducing medication if needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If a child develops a eardrum perforation, it is necessary to visit the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. Finally, we hope parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the hospital for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
