Question

A 7-year-old boy is experiencing ear pain, excessive yellow earwax, a buzzing sound in his ear, and a slight fever. What is the best way to treat yellow discharge in children with otitis media?

Answer

Currently, the clinical treatment of pediatric otitis media primarily involves antibiotics, with symptomatic medication showing good results based on the symptoms. Regional treatment can be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops, and painkillers can be administered according to the situation to relieve severe ear pain. Antipyretics should be used cautiously when there is a high fever, and immediate medical attention should be sought if the condition is severe. In case of eardrum perforation, timely medical attention and surgical treatment are required. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
