In such cases, hydrogen peroxide solution can be used to clean the discharged pus, followed by administration of antibiotic ear drops for anti-infective treatment. It is recommended to initially assess the extent of middle ear inflammation through otoscopic examination and temporal bone CT scan. If it is an acute exacerbation of chronic suppurative otitis media, symptoms such as ear pain and pus discharge should be considered, and antibiotic therapy is required—commonly using cephalosporins or penicillins.
