Question
How should one diagnose and treat yellow fluid discharge from a child’s ear in otitis media?
Answer
When treating this condition, consider administering symptomatic antibiotic medications to the child, along with regional use of anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the primary symptom is ear pain, painkillers can be considered. In cases of high fever, a moderate amount of antipyretic medication may be used. If the situation is severe, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. In addition to medication, if the child requires surgical treatment for a perforated eardrum, it is important to keep warm to prevent the exacerbation of symptoms.
