summary

In life, the inflammation of any part of the human body is easy to infect the adjacent parts. Eustachian tube inflammation is no exception. What are the causes of eustachian tube inflammation? Now let me tell you about this knowledge.

What are the causes of eustachian tube inflammation?

First of all: eustachian tube inflammation refers to the mucosal infection in the tube, the most common is the congestion and edema caused by upper respiratory tract inflammation, such as rhinitis, which causes the gas in the middle ear cavity to be absorbed, thus leading to the emergence of negative pressure, which has a certain impact on the physiological function of the middle ear cavity.

Secondly, the causes of eustachian tube obstruction and dysfunction are not only inflammation, but also: ① mechanical obstruction; Such as adenoid hypertrophy, hypertrophic rhinitis, nasopharyngeal tumor, lymphoid tissue hyperplasia, long-term packing of nasopharyngeal and nasal cavity in children. ② Allergy. ③ Barometric damage. ④ The rapid rise and fall of flying diving can lead to the injury of eustachian tube and barotympanitis.

Finally: the swelling of eustachian tube caused by inflammation leads to the blockage of the lumen, the external air can not enter the middle ear cavity, the original air in the cavity is absorbed, gradually forming a relative negative pressure, causing the venous dilatation, congestion, permeability enhancement of the middle ear mucosa, and producing liquid, leading to the occurrence of otitis media.
