Is otitis media treated well

summary

I am 18 years old. Recently, I feel some pain in my ears. I bought a bottle of ear medicine, sometimes a few drops. But after a few days, it doesn't get better. On the contrary, it has a more serious trend. I went to the hospital for examination. The doctor said it was otitis media. After treatment, it has been much better. I'd like to share my experience with you

Is otitis media treated well

Treatment 1: tympanic membrane puncture and fluid extraction: the 7 needle with a short tip slope was inserted into the tympanic chamber from the front and bottom of the tympanic membrane under aseptic operation, and the fluid was pumped. If necessary, the puncture can be repeated, or glucocorticoids can be injected after fluid extraction.

Treatment 2: myringotomy: when the liquid is thick, the puncture of tympanic membrane can not be absorbed completely, and the puncture of tympanic membrane can not be done under local anesthesia, the incision of tympanic membrane should be done. The operation can be performed under local anesthesia. Myringotomy was performed. Make radial or arc-shaped incision in the anterior and inferior quadrant of the tympanic membrane with tympanotomy knife. Pay attention not to damage the inner wall of the tympanic membrane. After tympanotomy, suck up all the fluid in the tympanic cavity.

Treatment 3: tympanic catheterization: if the patient's condition is delayed or recurrent, and the eustachian tube function is difficult to return to normal in a short time after head radiotherapy, tympanic catheterization should be performed to improve ventilation and drainage and promote eustachian tube function recovery. The indwelling time of ventilation tube is generally 6 weeks to 8 weeks, and the longest can be half a year to one year. After the eustachian tube function recovered, the ventilation tube was taken out, and some patients could discharge the ventilation tube out of the external auditory canal by themselves.

matters needing attention

Here I would like to give you a warm reminder: when the season changes, the temperature changes greatly, the number of children with cold increases, and the number of children with otitis media also increases. Some people think that only a bad cold can cause otitis media in children. In fact, a mild cold can also cause otitis media, so parents must pay more attention.
