Question

Dear parents, my daughter is only 7 years old. These days, she has been saying that her ears are itchy and painful. Sometimes in the morning, there is also a yellowish liquid coming out. At the same time, her appetite is not good, and her throat is uncomfortable as well. How should children with middle ear inflammation be treated when they can’t hear clearly?

Answer

When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications and also combine with some regional treatment methods, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops to treat ear pain. In cases of ear pain, you can also give the child some painkillers. If accompanied by a high fever, use medication based on the child’s symptoms. In severe cases, please seek medical treatment at a hospital as soon as possible. If the patient develops severe symptoms such as perforation of the eardrum, immediate hospital surgery is required. During this period, make sure the child gets plenty of rest and eats more vegetables and fruits.
