Question
Dear Parent, my daughter is currently 2 years old. Lately, she has been experiencing some pain in her ear. Additionally, there is a lot of yellow earwax, and the ear has a buzzing sound. She also has a slight fever. How should I treat my child’s ear infection with purulent earwax?
Answer
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions and administer some symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication to the child. Additionally, regional treatments can be carried out, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. If the child experiences significant pain, appropriate painkillers can be administered. In cases where there is a high fever accompanied by symptoms, medication should be used according to the child’s condition. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention at a hospital as soon as possible. These methods are commonly used in the treatment of otitis media. Moreover, if there is a perforation of the eardrum, timely surgical treatment is required. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease and take their child for medical treatment as soon as possible. In addition, it is important to pay attention to related preventive and health care work during daily life.
