Patient's question:
The child has only been born for a few days, and recently, for some reason, they keep scratching their ears. How should pediatric otitis media be treated?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is often caused by the progression of upper respiratory tract infectious diseases that have not been treated promptly, and most of them are related to bacterial infections. Blood tests and C-reactive protein tests can be performed on the baby to further clarify the diagnosis. If it is confirmed to be otitis media caused by bacterial infection, sensitive antibiotics can be used for antiviral treatment, and nursing care should be strengthened to try to prevent colds.
