How does darling suppurative otitis media treat?

Catarrhal otitis media, also known as exudative otitis media or non suppurative otitis media, is characterized by ear tightness and hearing loss. He often has a history of cold. Acute period can have mild otodynia. Exudative otitis media is a common cause of deafness in children. It is very important to strengthen the prevention of this disease. The most important measure is to exercise and enhance the body's resistance. In addition to systemic application of antibacterial and antiviral drugs, local nasal drops are particularly important. The commonly used nasal drops are 1% ephedrine or furacilin ephedrine nasal drops.

Prevention of otitis media in children: Generally speaking, infants are far more susceptible to ear diseases than adults. Because the eustachian tube of infants is not yet mature, the eustachian tube is only half the length of adults, and the diameter is thick, the position is relatively horizontal, and the orifice is often open. Therefore, the bacteria and secretions in the nasopharynx are easy to enter the tympanic chamber through this tube and cause otitis media.

The correct feeding method is: hold the baby to feed, after feeding, pat the baby on the back for 2-5 minutes. The treatment of acute otitis media can be intravenous or intramuscular penicillin and other antibiotics; If the tympanic membrane is not perforated, 2.5% chloramphenicol glycerin can be dripped. If the tympanic membrane is perforated, 0.5% chloramphenicol solution can be dripped. At the same time, we should also pay attention to improving and keeping the nasal cavity and eustachian tube unblocked.
