Question
My daughter is 3 years old, and she has been scratching her ear and saying it’s itchy for the past few days. There’s a lot of yellow earwax, and she has a low-grade fever. How should I treat my child’s ear infection and Itching in the Ear?
Answer
Antibiotics are commonly used to treat otitis media, and they can be chosen according to the situation. Regional treatment methods can also be combined, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has severe ear pain, painkillers can be considered, and fever-reducing medication can be taken if there is a fever. It is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible when there is a high fever, and if the child has a perforated eardrum, immediate medical attention and surgery should be sought. Parents should pay attention to protecting their child to prevent the recurrence of otitis media.
