Question

Dear reader, my daughter is currently 4 years old and has been complaining of ear pain for the past few days. There is also yellow earwax discharge, accompanied by a low-grade fever. How should one treat a child’s otitis media with earwax pus for effective results?

Answer

When treating this condition, it is advisable to administer symptomatic antibiotic medications to the child and complement this with regional treatment methods, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child’s ear pain and yellow fluid discharge are severe, painkillers may be recommended to alleviate symptoms. In cases of high fever, medication should be used according to the symptoms, and in severe situations, immediate medical attention is required. If complications such as perforation of the eardrum occur, timely medical treatment is necessary. During the treatment period, it is important to keep warm and avoid catching a cold to exacerbate the symptoms.
