Question
Dear parents, my daughter is currently 7 years old and has been experiencing some pain in her ear this week. The earwax is purulent and yellow, accompanied by headaches and fever. What is the best way to treat pediatric otitis media with yellow earwax?
Answer
For the best treatment of otitis media, choose medications with anti-inflammatory properties under a doctor’s guidance, or undergo regional treatment with anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the main symptom is ear pain, consider using painkillers; if the child has a high fever, take a suitable amount of antipyretic medication. However, if the fever persists, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. If the condition worsens and an eardrum perforation occurs, surgical treatment may be required. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this disease, bring their child for early medical treatment, and pay attention to related preventive and health care work in their daily lives.
