Question
It is recommended that parents choose suitable antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance to relieve inflammatory symptoms. How can otitis media in children causing itchy ears be effectively treated?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be used according to the doctor’s instructions, along with bacterial culture of ear secretions, and anti-inflammatory ear drops can be used based on the test results. If the child mainly shows symptoms of ear pain, it is suggested to use appropriate painkillers to relieve the discomfort. If fever is present, antipyretic medications can be taken. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. If there is a perforation in the eardrum, consider surgical treatment, and pay attention to a light diet during treatment, with a focus on liquid foods.
