Question
Dear Baby, currently 3 years old, these days, the child says that their ear is itchy and painful, and sometimes there is also yellowish fluid coming out in the morning. At the same time, they seem to have little appetite and are very tired. How should we treat a child’s ear infection with earwax pus?
Answer
For a better treatment of otitis media, it is recommended to choose some medications with anti-inflammatory effects under the guidance of a doctor. Regional drug treatment can be considered, such as choosing anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, some painkillers can be appropriately administered. Additionally, if there are fever symptoms, some antipyretic drugs can be taken. In case of high fever, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. For children with tympanic membrane perforation, parents may consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
