Question
Dear parents, our daughter is currently 4 years old and has recently been experiencing ear pain, yellowish earwax discharge, a buzzing sound in the ears, and low-grade fever. How should we treat pediatric otitis media to address the issue of unclear hearing?
Answer
During treatment, consider administering appropriate antibiotic medications to the child and using ear drops for localized anti-inflammatory therapy. In severe cases, painkillers may be considered to alleviate pain. If fever is present, parents can consider giving fever-reducing medication. In serious situations, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If an eardrum perforation occurs, it is recommended to seek medical attention for surgical treatment as soon as possible, while also ensuring good dietary hygiene and adequate rest.
