Question

My 3-year-old daughter has just started kindergarten. Recently, she said her ear was a bit painful, and sometimes yellowish fluid came out, along with a slight fever. How should I treat her itchy ear and middle ear inflammation?

Answer

For this condition, you can administer symptomatic antibiotic medication orally, apply ear drops locally to treat the condition, and provide pain relievers when the ear pain is severe. If there is a high fever, you can use a fever-reducing medicine appropriately. If the situation is serious, seek medical attention as soon as possible. If an eardrum perforation occurs, timely hospital treatment and surgical treatment should be sought. After the condition improves, it is recommended that the child engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
