Question

My daughter is 9 years old. Lately, she has been complaining about ear pain, yellow and thick earwax, and a buzzing sound in her ears, along with a slight fever. How should a child with middle ear infection be treated?

Answer

When treating such diseases, consider administering symptomatic antibiotic medications to the child, or using regional anti-inflammatory ear drops. For ear pain, some painkillers can also be provided. If accompanied by fever, antipyretic medications can be given, or immediate medical attention should be sought. In severe cases where the eardrum is perforated, surgical treatment may be necessary. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this disease, take their child to the doctor for early treatment, and pay attention to relevant prevention and health care work in daily life.
