Question
The child was born a few days ago, and recently, for some unknown reason, they have been constantly scratching their ears. What should be done if there is a swelling inside the child’s ear?
Answer
Your situation suggests an asymptomatic lump, which may be due to enlarged lymph nodes. It often occurs secondary to upper respiratory infections, so it’s advisable to visit a hospital for a routine blood test. If there are no abnormalities, taking some symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication should suffice. There is no need to worry; improving motor function, enhancing self-care abilities, and increasing joint mobility, muscle tone adjustment, motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance can help. Additionally, medication can be used, such as brain nerve nutrition drugs and muscle relaxants. Medication should only be used when necessary.
