Question
Dear Baby, now 1 year old, recently feeling ear pain, found earwax to be purulent and slightly yellow. Additionally, poor appetite, throat discomfort. How should a child’s middle ear infection and tinnitus be treated?
Answer
If a child has a middle ear infection, appropriate anti-inflammatory medication can be used for symptomatic treatment, and regional treatment methods can also be combined, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child’s ear pain is severe, it is recommended to use painkillers according to the situation. If accompanied by a high fever, a small amount of antipyretic medication can be used. In case of serious conditions, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child has a perforated eardrum, it is recommended to seek medical treatment and surgery as soon as possible. Meanwhile, pay attention to providing light meals and enhancing nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
