How to treat baby\’s ear discharge? Be careful of affecting your hearing!

Question 1: Why does a baby have yellow purulent discharge from his ears? I went to the local county hospital and was told that there was no otoscope suitable for such a small child. I looked at it with a flashlight and said it was otitis media. I was prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs. Is it okay to take anti-inflammatory drugs? If it is otitis media, will taking medicine and observing it at home for two days delay the treatment? Dr. Cui Lixia answered: From the outside, it looks like eczema is infected. You can apply Baiduobang ointment. Inside the ear canal, it is recommended to go to an otologist and use an otoscope to see if there is otitis media or ear canal eczema. Eczema and infection can both cause otitis media. If a flashlight doesn\’t work, you need to use an otoscope to check clearly. If it\’s not otitis media, antibiotics will have serious side effects. Whether to delay treatment depends on the severity. Severe cases may affect hearing. Question 2: The little girl is almost nine years old. She always has a fever. When she has a fever, she has a severe headache. Sometimes she is also nauseated and cannot eat. This has happened once before. It was said to be a bacterial infection. This is the second time. The second time. Dr. Zhang Yanmei answered: In this case, you need to pay attention to the following conditions: ❶ Fever caused by accumulated food and heat, ❷ Fever caused by cold sensation on the outside, ❸ Also pay attention to whether there is rhinitis, ❹ Check the head CT if necessary to rule out intracranial problems. Question 3: The baby had nosebleeds for two days in a row. They were from different nostrils. There was no impact on the nose. However, the child rubbed his nose before the nosebleed. The second time the nosebleed was when he was sleeping in the middle of the night. He also had nosebleeds for a period of time when he was about one and a half years old. Three There was no abnormality in the routine blood test a month ago. Do I need to have the blood routine checked again? Dr. Zhu Xiwei’s answer: Generally, damage to the nasal mucosa is caused by children rubbing their noses and picking their noses. There is no need to worry about this. If it is not frequent, there is no need for reexamination. Let the children drink more warm water.
