Question

Dear Baby, she is just 1 year old. These days, the child says that their ear itches and hurts, there is yellow earwax flowing out, and they seem to have little appetite and are quite weak. How should one effectively treat a child’s middle ear inflammation when their ear itches?

Answer

When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications, and also combine with some regional treatment methods, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for medical treatment. If the child has severe ear pain, it is recommended to give some painkillers according to the situation. If accompanied by a high fever, then use medication based on the child’s symptoms. In severe cases, please go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. Middle ear inflammation has the characteristic of recurrent attacks. If there is a situation of perforation of the eardrum, it is necessary to receive timely medical treatment. During this period, pay attention to allowing the child to rest sufficiently and eat more vegetables and fruits.
