Question

How should one treat yellow earwax in a child with otitis media?

Answer

If a child has otitis media, it is first advisable to use antibiotics that target the symptoms. In severe cases, regional treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can be combined. For children with pronounced ear pain, painkillers may be administered. If fever is present, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. The above are common treatment methods. If the child shows symptoms of tympanic membrane perforation, timely medical attention and surgical treatment should be sought. At the same time, attention should be paid to arranging reasonable dietary and rest habits to help the disease recover sooner.
