Question

How should one treat earache in children with otitis media?

Answer

For children suffering from otitis media, appropriate medication can be used based on the symptoms. Parents can use anti-inflammatory ear drops for localized treatment. If the child experiences severe ear pain, it is recommended to administer painkillers according to the situation. In cases of high fever, medication should be used based on the symptoms. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical treatment promptly. In addition to medication, if there are severe conditions such as perforation of the eardrum, surgical treatment may be required. Parents should also take precautions to prevent a recurrence of otitis media.
