Question
My child has had otitis media since they were young, it flares up several times a year, and recently, it has started to discharge pus and blood. How should I treat it?
Answer
It is recommended to take the following measures: eat a light, easy-to-digest, and nutritious diet; promptly and appropriately treat diseases of the nasal cavity and pharynx; when swimming, pay attention to ear hygiene and keep the ears dry; prevent colds, as this is the foundation for preventing otitis media. Once a cold occurs, it should be treated promptly. In addition, it is suggested that patients seek medical attention early on and undergo treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor. In daily life, drink plenty of water and pay attention to dietary adjustment, hoping that the child can recover soon.
