Question
Dear readers, my daughter, aged 5, has been scratching her ear and feeling itchy recently. The earwax is purulent and yellowish, and she has a loss of appetite and a sore throat. What are the effective treatment methods for children’s otitis media with purulent earwax?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be used for treatment. Regional options include the use of ear drops. If symptoms are severe, such as ear pain and discharge of yellow fluid, it is recommended to use painkillers to alleviate symptoms. If fever is present, antipyretic medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If complications such as perforation of the eardrum occur, timely medical treatment and surgery should be sought. At the same time, pay attention to a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to promote recovery.
