What symptom does ear cerumen embolism have

summary

My son seems to have a bit of a back ear. Sometimes he shouts him as if nothing had happened. The day before yesterday, he shouts that his left ear is sore and swollen. His mother sees that the external auditory canal is filled with earwax and pus. When we get to the hospital, the doctor says it's cerumen embolism. What's the symptom of cerumen embolism? Let's take a look at the following.

What symptom does ear cerumen embolism have

First, after cerumen embolism, it can cause hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo or reflex cough; sudden deafness can be caused when swelling with water; erosion, swelling, pain or pus can appear when stimulating the skin of external auditory canal.

Second, it is suggested that cerumen embolism should not be dug blindly. If it is dug by force, it is bound to damage the skin of external auditory canal, even damage the tympanic membrane, and easily cause infection.

Third, improper ear tapping can push the cerumen deeper and make it more difficult to remove. For large and hard cerumen, first use 3% ~ 5% sodium bicarbonate solution to drop the ear, three times a day. After the cerumen softens, hook it out, or rinse it out with normal saline.

matters needing attention

Attention should be paid to hearing loss. Please go to a regular otolaryngology hospital for operation by a professional doctor to avoid unnecessary injury.
