A 3-year-old girl, just started kindergarten, has been complaining of ear pain recently. Upon inspection, there is occasionally yellow fluid discharge, poor appetite, and discomfort in the throat. How should pediatric otitis media with purulent earwax be treated? Treatment should involve symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on the child’s symptoms. If the child’s condition is severe, regional treatments can be combined, such as anti-inflammatory ear drops. Painkillers can also be administered for ear pain. If the child has a fever, antipyretic medication should be used as appropriate. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought promptly. These methods are commonly used in the treatment of otitis media. Additionally, if there is a perforation of the eardrum, immediate surgical treatment is required. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage the child in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
