Question
How should a child with otitis media be treated?
Answer
For the treatment of such diseases, appropriate antibiotic medications can be administered to the child, along with the use of anti-inflammatory ear drops and other localized treatment methods. Depending on the child’s condition, a certain amount of painkillers can be given, particularly when the ear pain is severe, which helps to alleviate the pain. If accompanied by a high fever, medication should be administered based on the child’s symptoms. In serious cases, medical attention should be sought promptly. Additionally, if there is a perforation in the eardrum, timely surgical treatment is required, and during the treatment period, attention should be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring adequate rest time.
