Question
The 3-year-old boy has just started to complain of ear itching and pain this week. There is yellowish earwax discharge, accompanied by headaches and fever. What are the diagnostic and treatment methods for pediatric otitis media and tinnitus?
Answer
Treatment should be administered with symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. Anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used for localized treatment. For severe ear pain, painkillers can be used appropriately. For high fever, antipyretic medication should be used as needed. In severe cases, seek medical attention promptly; if the eardrum is perforated, surgical treatment may be required. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
