What symptom does blue tympanic membrane and cholesterol granuloma have?

summary

What symptom does blue tympanic membrane and cholesterol granuloma have? Common symptoms: Blue tympanic membrane sign, granuloma, blue tympanic membrane, also known as black tympanic membrane. The normal tympanic membrane is oval translucent membrane. If the tympanic chamber is full of air, the tympanic membrane will be pearl white. Once there is bloody content in the tympanum, it will appear dark blue or blue black through the tympanic membrane. Therefore, the blue tympanic membrane is only a lesion in or around the tympanic cavity, which is reflected in the change of the color of the tympanic membrane. Once the cholesterol granuloma is necrotic and bleeding, it can make the tympanic cavity accumulate blood and appear "blue tympanic membrane sign". The depth of its blue color depends on the amount of blood decomposition products in the exudate of the tissue.

What symptom does blue tympanic membrane and cholesterol granuloma have?

Human cholesterol comes from diet and body synthesis. The amount of synthesis in the body is affected by the level of dietary cholesterol. The amount of synthesis in the body decreases when the dietary cholesterol intake is too much, and increases when the dietary cholesterol intake is too little. Cholesterol is metabolized in the liver and excreted with feces. Normally, cholesterol is maintained at an appropriate level in the blood. When lipid metabolism is abnormal or dietary cholesterol intake exceeds the body's regulatory capacity, the cholesterol concentration in the blood will rise and gradually deposit on the inner wall of blood vessels, resulting in vascular stenosis and cardiovascular disease.

Examination items: tympanic membrane puncture, blood routine, normal tympanic membrane is oval translucent membrane, if the tympanic chamber is full of air, the tympanic membrane will show as pearl white. Once there is bloody content in the tympanum, it will appear dark blue or blue black through the tympanic membrane.

If the patients with blue tympanic membrane have a history of trauma, the first thing to think about is blood accumulation in tympanic cavity after craniocerebral trauma (temporal bone fracture). Secondly, it may be high jugular bulb, tympanic swelling and systemic coagulation disorders. With the development of modern medical engineering, we should also pay attention to the artificial prosthesis of the ear, such as cochlear implant or artificial middle ear, in which the electronic components can also make the tympanic membrane "dye" blue.

matters needing attention

The first treatment of this disease is to control the cold of cholesterol in the body. Oral HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, such as lovastatin calcium, can be given. Chinese patent medicine can also use Xuezhikang Capsule, which also has a certain role in reducing blood lipid. At the same time, once cholesterol granuloma necrosis and bleeding to form blue tympanic membrane, we should actively surgical treatment, in order to reduce the occurrence of complications. Other treatments are mainly symptomatic treatment, including vitamin supplement, maintenance of electrolyte level and other supportive treatment.
