Question

How to treat ear soreness in children with otitis media?

Answer

If a child has otitis media, appropriate antibiotic medications can be used for treatment, along with local treatments such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. Painkillers can also be administered in moderate amounts when the child experiences severe ear pain. If fever is present, antipyretic medication can be taken. It is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible when there is a high fever. These methods are currently commonly used in the treatment of otitis media. In case of tympanic membrane perforation, timely surgical treatment is required. During the treatment period, it is important to keep warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
