Question

The 3-year-old girl recently experienced ear pain, thick yellow earwax, ear buzzing, and low-grade fever. How should she be treated for the hearing issues caused by otitis media?

Answer

For patients with otitis media, regional treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be used, such as ear drops. If the ear pain is severe, painkillers can be considered; if accompanied by high fever, a moderate amount of fever reducers can be used, but if the fever persists, medical attention should be sought promptly. In severe cases such as perforation of the eardrum, timely treatment is required, and reasonable diet and lifestyle habits should be maintained to aid recovery.
