Question
My daughter is 7 years old, and recently, she has been experiencing some pain in her ear, with yellow earwax and a low-grade fever. What are the treatment methods for children with otitis media and yellow earwax?
Answer
For the treatment of such diseases, children can be given suitable antibiotic medications, as well as regional treatments such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child’s ear pain is severe, painkillers can be used in moderation. If the child is accompanied by a high fever, consider using fever-reducing medication, but if the high fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, parents may consider surgical treatment for the child. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease and bring their child for medical treatment as soon as possible. In addition, pay attention to relevant prevention and health care work during daily life.
