Patient's question:
Hello, my daughter is two years old this year. Recently, for some reason, the child suddenly screamed that she wanted to sleep. Later, when asked, the child said her left ear was hurting. After a hospital examination, no cause was found. In the past month, it has occurred six times, with the pain lasting only about a minute each time. I really don't know why? Please help the doctor advise!Doctor's answer:
Is the child developing well in all aspects? What specific tests have been done? Was the child born full-term via vaginal delivery? It is recommended to visit the otolaryngology department of a public hospital for examination. Follow the doctor's advice for treatment. Pain relievers are not recommended as they may mask the condition. If the child's pain is severe, it is advised to go to the emergency department of the hospital as soon as possible. It is recommended that you and your family can apply local heat or massage to the child's ear. It is best to take the child to the otolaryngology department of a local regular hospital tomorrow for a check-up and related tests.
