What symptom does darling tympanic membrane perforation have?
summary
The tympanic membrane, also known as the eardrum, is an oval translucent membrane, which is composed of epithelial layer, fibrous layer and mucosal layer. It is located at the junction of the middle ear tympanic chamber and the external auditory canal, and forms the lateral wall of the tympanic chamber. It separates the external auditory canal from the middle ear cavity, and blocks foreign bodies and bacteria that protect the external auditory canal from entering the middle ear cavity, The structure of tympanic membrane can make the incoming sound wave gain and compensate for the attenuation caused by the incoming sound.

What symptom does darling tympanic membrane perforation have?
Patients with ear pain, tympanic membrane perforation after the pain can be alleviated, there can be liquid out of the ear. After the rupture of tympanic membrane, the patient suddenly felt otodynia, immediate hearing loss with tinnitus, a small amount of bleeding in the external auditory canal and a sense of stuffy swelling in the ear. Due to the anatomical characteristics of children, the eustachian tube connecting the nasal cavity and the middle ear cavity is short, flat and thick. When the upper respiratory tract infection occurs, the bacteria and secretions in the nasal cavity can easily reach the middle ear cavity through the eustachian tube and cause infection. At the same time, if the breast-feeding posture is not correct, the milk can easily flow into or choke into the middle ear through the eustachian tube and cause acute otitis media, leading to tympanic membrane perforation.
Symptoms of tympanic membrane perforation 1. General symptoms: before tympanic membrane perforation, the symptoms of fever, chills and fatigue are obvious. Children are often accompanied with vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms of acute gastroenteritis. The pain can radiate to the ipsilateral frontal, temporal and teeth, which is caused by the reflex of trigeminal nerve branches on the tympanic membrane
Tympanic membrane perforation can be divided into chronic suppurative otitis media perforation and traumatic tympanic membrane perforation. Traumatic tympanic membrane perforation must first have a clear history of ear trauma. In addition, external auditory canal bleeding, hearing loss, tinnitus and other conditions occur after ear trauma; If it is perforation caused by chronic suppurative otitis media, often accompanied by external auditory canal water or pus, hearing loss is obvious.
