Question
Dear Baby, currently 1 year old, recently experiencing ear pain, purulent earwax, and low-grade fever. How should a child’s middle ear infection and tinnitus be treated effectively?
Answer
The treatment method should be determined based on the child’s symptoms, and symptomatic anti-inflammatory medications can be considered, along with regional treatments such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. For severe ear pain, analgesics can be used moderately. If accompanied by high fever, antipyretic medications can be used appropriately. If the symptoms are severe, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. In cases of tympanic membrane perforation, timely surgical treatment is required. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
