Question
What are the symptoms and treatment methods for pediatric otitis media?
Answer
Currently, antibiotic medications are commonly used to treat pediatric otitis media and can be selected as appropriate. If the condition is severe, regional treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can be combined. The primary symptom is usually ear pain, and painkillers can be considered. Some children may have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If symptoms do not subside, it is imperative to seek medical attention. Otitis media has a tendency to recur, and if there is a perforation of the eardrum, timely medical treatment should be sought. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this disease, bring their children to the doctor for early treatment, and pay attention to relevant prevention and health care work in their daily lives.
