1. Acute otitis media is an acute suppurative inflammation of middle ear mucosa, which is infected by Eustachian tube. After a cold, the inflammation of pharynx and nose spread to eustachian tube, the pharyngeal orifice and lumen mucosa of eustachian tube appeared hyperemia and swelling, and the cilia movement was obstructed, causing otitis media. The common pathogenic bacteria are pneumococcus, Haemophilus influenzae and so on. 2. Nose contains a lot of viruses and bacteria. If both nostrils are pinched and forced to blow, the pressure will force the nose to squeeze out to the posterior nostril and reach the eustachian tube, causing otitis media.

3. Swimming should avoid swallowing water in the mouth, so as to avoid water through the nasopharynx and into the middle ear, causing otitis media. In case of perforation of tympanic membrane caused by trauma, it is forbidden to drop any watery liquid to avoid affecting wound healing. The external auditory canal can be blocked with sterilized cotton ball to avoid infection induced otitis media. 4. If the baby supine position feeding, because the baby's eustachian tube is relatively straight, and the lumen is short, the inner diameter is wide, milk can be choked into the middle ear through the eustachian tube, causing otitis media.
