What are the best treatments for otitis media in children?

Patient's question:

My child has been crying a lot recently. After checking, it was found to be otitis media, and occasionally there are also cases of fever. What are the best treatments for pediatric otitis media?

Doctor's answer:

Children are more prone to otitis media because their immunity is lower and their nasal hair tissues are also immature. Therefore, secretions from the nasal cavity and nasopharynx can easily flow back into the middle ear, leading to acute otitis media.
In terms of treatment, first, the use of an endoscope for precise examination of the lesion can locate abnormalities in deep and hidden areas of the ear, effectively reducing treatment risks, improving accuracy, and determining the type of otitis media. Second, guided by the endoscope and otoscope, multiple surgeries can be performed with both precision and safety, achieving hearing restoration and effectively treating the surgical goals of otitis media.
