Question

Dear parents, my 9-year-old daughter has been experiencing some pain in her ear lately, along with yellowish earwax discharge and a slight fever. How should we treat her otitis media and tinnitus effectively?

Answer

When treating such conditions, you can give your child symptomatic antibiotic medications. Regional drug treatment can be used, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be administered to treat the earache. For children with severe pain, analgesic drugs can be given. If the child is also running a fever, parents can administer antipyretic medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. These methods are among the commonly used treatments for otitis media. Additionally, if there is a perforation of the eardrum, timely surgical treatment is required. Lastly, parents should pay attention to this condition and take their child for early medical treatment. It is also important to do well in terms of prevention and health care in daily life.
