Harm one: it will have an impact on the life of patients. Patients with otitis media often need others to speak repeatedly in their daily life, resulting in embarrassing situations when communicating with people. In addition, because they often can't hear clearly, they will listen to other people's words wrongly, causing misunderstanding, affecting interpersonal relationship, causing social difficulties, and can't live a normal life.

Harm two: it will have a great impact on students' learning. Patients often can't understand the lecture knowledge because they can't hear the teacher's lecture clearly or can't hear the teacher's lecture, which leads to the decline of performance.

Harm three: will endanger the patient's mental health, because they suffer from otitis media, will be afraid to lead to discrimination from others, to avoid the embarrassment of communication with people, may slowly isolate themselves, and even cause irritability, personality or depression. Deaf children often feel bad self-image because of their poor hearing, and are prone to behavioral and psychological problems such as irritability and inattention.

Warm reminder: try not to use sharp objects to pull out the ear, so as not to scratch the ear canal and cause infection. Don't blow your nose by pinching your nostrils tightly, because it can increase the pressure on the nose and throat, and make the nose and bacteria enter the middle ear through the eustachian tube. The nose can be aspirated backward and spit out from the mouth, or the handkerchief can be placed in the front nostril to gently blow out the nose, or one side of the front nostril can be gently pinched to gently blow out the opposite side of the open nasal cavity.
