Question
A boy, 1 year old, has been experiencing ear pain, yellow earwax discharge, ear buzzing, and low fever in recent days. What is the treatment for yellow earwax in children with otitis media?
Answer
For the treatment of such diseases, consider administering symptomatic antibiotic medications to the child, along with regional use of anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child’s ear pain is severe, appropriate painkillers can be used; if accompanied by fever symptoms, antipyretic medications can be taken. In case of tympanic membrane perforation, timely medical attention and surgical treatment should be sought. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a light diet preferred, and to ensure sufficient rest to avoid fatigue.
