Question
An 11-year-old boy has been experiencing ear pain, sticky and yellow earwax, and a low-grade fever recently. What treatment should be considered?
Answer
For such cases, appropriate antibiotic treatment can be considered, along with regional ear drops for inflammation. If the main symptom is ear pain, painkillers can be used in moderation to relieve the discomfort. If fever is present, fever-reducing medication can be used or medical treatment should be sought. In case of perforation of the eardrum, timely surgical treatment is necessary, and during this period, attention should be paid to rest and consume more fruits and vegetables.
