Question
My son is five years old. Lately, he has been complaining of an itchy and painful ear, with yellow earwax discharge, reduced appetite, and an uncomfortable throat. How can I effectively treat the tinnitus symptoms caused by pediatric otitis media?
Answer
When treating such diseases, you can give your child a moderate dose of antibiotic medication and use regional anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child’s ear pain is severe, appropriate painkillers can be administered. If the child has a fever, immediate administration of fever-reducing medicine or hospital check-up is recommended. In case of perforation of the eardrum, it is advised to go to the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
