Question
How should one treat ear pain caused by children’s otitis media?
Answer
Generally, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions and administer anti-inflammatory medications to the child. Regional treatments, such as ear drops, can be used. If the child experiences ear pain and discharge of yellow fluid, it is advisable to use pain relievers to alleviate symptoms. If fever is present, fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are conditions such as perforation of the eardrum, surgical treatment may be required. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to a light diet, with fluids being the main choice.
