    1. Drugs for otitis media**.

    1.Systemic medications.

    Otitis media requires antibiotics to control the infection, usually with cephalosporins, which need to be given orally or intravenously depending on the patient's condition. In the case of acute purulent otitis media, early antibiotics can effectively prevent tympanic membrane perforation.

    2.Topical medications.

    1) Glucocorticoids.

    Otitis media can be applied topically, glucocorticoids can be used, the main effect of this type of drug is anti-inflammatory and analgesic, often used as an adjunct, try to avoid long-term medication.

    2) Thinning mucos.

    If you have otitis media, you can also use muco-thinning drugs topically to **. These drugs can enhance the excretory function of cilia, reduce the surface tension of the eustachian tube mucosa, and reduce the pressure of opening, which is helpful for recovery.

    3) Vasoconstrictors.

    People with otitis media can also be treated with vasoconstrictors**, which are actually nasal drops containing vasoconstrictors. Nasal drops with this medication improve the patency of the Eustachian tubes, thereby reducing local inflammation in otitis media.

    2. Surgery for otitis media**.

    If the condition of otitis media is too severe and obvious complications have appeared, surgery** can be considered, such as tympanoplasty, middle ear lesion resection, etc.

    Otitis media includes acute otitis media and chronic otitis media, which in turn includes chronic simple otitis media, osteotic otitis media, cholesteatoma otitis media, and secretory otitis media. Acute otitis media can be treated with oral or intravenous antibiotics according to the severity of the symptoms, local ear drops of ofloxacin ear, and physiological seawater irrigation of the nasal cavity, ephedrine vasoconstrictors and nasal drops.

    For chronic simple otitis media, it is necessary to reduce the triggers and avoid the onset of acute otitis media. If there is repeated ear pus or hearing loss, surgery** is also required. For patients with osteolitic otitis media or cholesteatoma otitis media, surgery is required as soon as possible**.

    Secretory otitis media should be accompanied by nasal, sinus or nasopharyngeal diseases. If there is a large amount of fluid in the middle ear, tympanic membrane puncture, myringotomy, or tympanic tube surgery, oral eucalyptus, myrtle oil, or oral European horse in children can be used.

    Otitis media, commonly known as "rotten ears", is a common condition. Otitis media often occurs in adolescents and children, but also in other age groups, and is often a painful complication of an upper respiratory tract infection such as the common cold or throat infection.

    Pus culture should be carried out if possible, and antimicrobial susceptibility tests should be carried out, and antibiotics should be selected according to the test results, or oral or injected.

    Unless there are other factors that cause otitis media in addition to the ear, the long-term existence of this factor has cured otitis media, but this factor that causes otitis media has not been eliminated, and it is reversed in the middle ear, but this does not mean that otitis media cannot be treated, if it is removed, maybe otitis media will no longer be **.

    Otitis media is not enough, now the requirements are a little higher, that is, I also hope that after cleaning up otitis media, hearing can return to normal, because sometimes a clean-up, the ear listening ossicles, these sound conduction devices have been wiped out, so the damaged ossicles, the tympanic membrane must be rebuilt, repaired, most patients can achieve this complete removal of lesions, ** otitis media, and at the same time restore hearing This requirement, even if a small number of can't be reached, but the complete ** otitis media, can still be achieved.

    On the other hand, there is a kind of otitis media, which is the so-called secretory otitis media, also known as non-purulent otitis media, this lesion is actually the main problem is not that it can not be **, but lies outside the ear, and the factors that cause otitis media are not easy to remove, for example, there are lesions in the nose, which always cause secretory otitis media.
