Question
Dear reader, our 9-year-old daughter has recently been experiencing ear itching and a buzzing sound, with yellow, thick earwax, and low-grade fever symptoms. How should a child with middle ear infection and ear itching be treated?
Answer
For such conditions, consider administering a moderate dose of antibiotics to the child, as well as regional treatment with anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the ear pain is severe with a purulent discharge, painkillers can be taken to alleviate symptoms; if accompanied by fever, antipyretic medication can be used. If the symptoms are severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, if an eardrum perforation occurs, timely surgical treatment is required. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this condition, seek medical advice early, and do a good job of prevention and health care in their daily lives.
