Question
How should one treat yellow discharge from a child’s ear infection?
Answer
It is generally recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions and administer anti-inflammatory medications to the child. Anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used for treatment. If symptoms are severe, painkillers can be chosen to alleviate the symptoms. If fever is present, parents can give fever-reducing medication. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If an eardrum perforation occurs, surgical treatment may be necessary. Additionally, parents should pay attention to protective measures to avoid a recurrence of otitis media.
