Question
How should children with otitis media caused by earwax and a purulent condition be treated?
Answer
If a child has otitis media, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be used, along with systemic medication, and regional treatment can also be administered, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. When the child experiences severe pain in the ear, painkillers can be administered appropriately. If the child has a fever, parents can give fever-reducing medication or seek immediate medical attention. In severe cases, such as a perforated eardrum, immediate medical treatment is required. At the same time, it is important to ensure the child maintains a light diet, increases nutritional supplementation, and aids in a quick recovery.
