Question
My 3-year-old daughter just started kindergarten, and recently she has been experiencing itchy and painful ears, yellowish discharge, and a low-grade fever. If a child with otitis media cannot hear clearly, what medical treatment should be administered?
Answer
Treatment methods include symptomatic antibiotic medications, ear secretion bacterial culture, using anti-inflammatory ear drops, painkillers, and antipyretic drugs. In case of high fever, it is recommended to seek medical attention. Perforated eardrum requires surgical treatment. After recovery, appropriate exercise to enhance immunity can help prevent recurrence.
