Question

Dear Parent, my 2-year-old son recently complained of ear pain and has yellow fluid draining from his ear. He has lost his appetite and is feeling weak. What are the treatment methods for children’s otitis media with purulent earwax?

Answer

Children with otitis media with purulent earwax can be treated with oral antibiotic medications, regional application of anti-inflammatory ear drops, and can be given painkillers in appropriate amounts if there is ear pain. If fever occurs, consider using antipyretic medication. In severe cases, seek medical attention and consider surgical treatment. Pay attention to a light diet and nutritional supplementation to promote recovery.
