Question
My daughter is 2 years old. Lately, she has been feeling itchy and painful in her ears, with yellowish earwax discharge, reduced appetite, and fatigue. How should I treat my child’s tonsillitis and itchy ears?
Answer
It is recommended that parents choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance to alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Regional medications, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops, can also be considered. For ear pain, analgesics can be used in moderation. If there is a fever, antipyretic medication can be used as needed. In severe cases, seek medical attention promptly. Ear membrane perforation requires timely surgical treatment. During the treatment period, a light diet is advisable, with a focus on liquid foods.
