Question
My 3-year-old daughter has been experiencing some pain in her ear with yellowish earwax discharge and a slight fever. What should be the treatment for her otitis media and tinnitus in this situation?
Answer
For the treatment of such conditions, consider administering a suitable dose of antibiotic medication or applying topical steroid ear drops regionally to treat the otitis media. Painkillers can also be administered if the child’s ear pain is severe. If there are fever symptoms, medication with fever-reducing effects can be given. In case of severe illness, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child develops serious conditions such as perforation of the eardrum, timely treatment is necessary. In addition to medication, parents should pay attention to early medical consultation for their child and focus on relevant preventive and health care work on a daily basis.
