How should I treat a lump that has appeared behind my baby’s ear?

Answer

If a lump appears behind a baby’s ear, it is advisable to consider the possibility of lymphadenitis and to seek a detailed medical examination at the hospital immediately. If diagnosed with lymphadenitis, oral antibiotics such as cefaclor or roxithromycin can be taken, and traditional Chinese medicine treatments like Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid can also be used. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to diet, drink plenty of water, maintain a light diet, and avoid consuming excessive amounts of meat, cold and raw foods, and drinks.
