Question

My daughter is five years old, and her ears have been a bit painful recently. She occasionally leaks yellow fluid in the morning, and she also has mild fever symptoms. How should this condition be treated?

Answer

For the earwax pus symptoms caused by pediatric otitis media, parents can first administer anti-inflammatory medication to the child and use regional anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, painkillers can be given in moderation. When the child has fever symptoms, fever-reducing medication can be used. If the symptoms are severe or persist without improvement, it is advisable to seek professional medical assistance as soon as possible. The aforementioned methods are common treatments for otitis media. In addition, after the condition improves, it is recommended to let the child engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence of the disease.
