Question

Dear Baby, she’s only 8 years old. This week, the child said her ear hurt, and I noticed that there was yellow earwax coming out, and she also seemed to have little appetite and was very weak. How should pediatric otitis media and tinnitus be treated?

Answer

Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the methods and medications used in clinical treatment for pediatric otitis media. Parents can choose symptomatic treatments, including regional drug treatment, which can be treated with anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child has a lot of ear pain, some painkillers can be given in moderation. If the child is accompanied by a fever, parents can give the child some antipyretic medication. In serious cases, it is best to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If your child has a problem with tympanic membrane perforation, it is necessary to go to the hospital for timely surgical treatment. Finally, I hope that parents can pay attention to this disease and take their children to see a doctor for treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, it is also important to do a good job of related prevention and health care work.
