Question
Dear parents, our 6-year-old daughter has recently been experiencing ear pain with yellow fluid discharge and a low-grade fever. What is the best way to treat her pediatric otitis media for ear pain relief?
Answer
To effectively treat otitis media, one can opt for medication with anti-inflammatory properties under a doctor’s guidance, along with local treatments such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. In cases of severe ear pain in infants, painkillers can be administered in appropriate amounts. If accompanied by a high fever, medication should be used according to symptoms, and in severe cases, immediate medical treatment should be sought. If the child develops a perforated eardrum, timely medical attention and surgical treatment should be sought, and during the treatment period, attention should be paid to nutritional supplementation, a light diet, and adequate rest to avoid fatigue.
