Question
How can you effectively treat a child’s earache caused by otitis media?
Answer
When treating pediatric otitis media, parents can administer anti-inflammatory medications to their child. In severe cases, regional treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used in conjunction. If the child’s ear pain is severe, painkillers may be considered. For fever, a suitable amount of fever-reducing medication can be used, but if the fever persists, medical attention must be sought promptly. These are common treatment methods. If the child shows symptoms of tympanic membrane perforation, immediate medical attention and surgical treatment should be sought. After the condition improves, it is recommended that the child engage in moderate exercise to boost their immune system and prevent recurrence.
