Treatment Effectiveness of Pediatric Otitis Media with Purulent Discharge

If a child has otitis media, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be used. Concurrently, regional treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can be administered. Appropriate painkillers should be given based on the child’s condition, especially when the ear pain is severe, to alleviate discomfort. If the child has a high fever, fever-reducing medication can be considered, but if the fever persists, medical attention should be sought promptly. If the child develops a perforated eardrum, it is recommended to seek medical attention for surgical treatment. Parents should also take precautions to protect their children and prevent a recurrence of otitis media.
