Question
A 12-year-old boy, in elementary school. Lately, he has been complaining of itchy and painful ears, with yellow earwax and low fever in the morning. What are effective treatment methods for children’s otitis media accompanied by yellow earwax?
Answer
Treatment for pediatric otitis media includes the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications, as well as regional treatments such as ear drops. Painkillers can be used in moderation during severe ear pain, and fever-reducing medication can be taken when feverish symptoms are present. In case of severe conditions, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and to maintain a reasonable diet and rest schedule to aid recovery.
