Question
The little girl is 3 years old and has just started kindergarten. In recent days, she has reported ear pain, occasional yellow fluid discharge in the morning, and some low-grade fever symptoms. How can one diagnose and treat otitis media with tinnitus in children?
Answer
According to the doctor’s advice, give the child a moderate dose of anti-inflammatory medication. At the same time, regional treatments such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops can be combined. If the ear pain is significant, some painkillers can be used. If the child has a fever, parents can give the child fever-reducing medication. If symptoms are severe, seek medical attention promptly. If symptoms of perforated eardrum are found, immediate hospital surgery is required. Parents should also pay attention to arranging reasonable dietary and rest habits to help the child recover quickly.
