    Symptoms vary slightly depending on different types of otitis media. Typical symptoms of suppurative otitis media include earache, hearing loss, discharge of water in the ear canal, pus, and even bleeding. Secretory otitis media is mostly manifested as ear pain, ear tightness, ear blockage, hearing loss or tinnitus.

    In addition to the above typical symptoms, it can also be accompanied by fever, headache and other systemic symptoms. Symptoms: 1. Earache is more common in acute purulent otitis media, and the pain is more obvious when the tympanic membrane is hyperemia, and if it is accompanied by purulent discharge in the middle ear, it can be manifested as severe pain.

    Some patients will experience a feeling of ear congestion. 2. Patients with suppurative otitis media with flowing water or purulent ear canal, when the eardrum is perforated, watery, bloody or purulent discharge will flow out of the ear canal. Ear canal discharge can be persistent or intermittent, with the former being more common in middle ear cholesteatomas, especially when the ear canal discharge is like tofu residue with a foul odor, and the latter is more common in chronic simple otitis media.

    3. Most patients with hearing loss will be accompanied by varying degrees of hearing loss, especially patients with middle ear cholesteatoma, because the ossicular chain is destroyed by cholesteatoma, the hearing loss is more serious. 4. Some patients with tinnitus will be accompanied by low-key or high-profile tinnitus. In patients with secretory otitis media, when the nose is pinched and the air is puffed, the "sound of air passing through the water" in the ear will be heard.

    Note: Some patients may have symptoms such as fever, vomiting, and diarrhea.

    Sinusitis is mainly caused by inflammation of the mucous membranes of the nasal cavity and sinuses, which is mainly manifested by nasal congestion, pus and runny nose, accompanied by headache. If severe nasal congestion persists and produces a large amount of purulent discharge, it will affect the opening of the pharyngeal opening of the eustachian tube, cause Eustachian tube dysfunction, cause negative pressure in the middle ear, tympanic membrane effusion, and form secretory otitis media, which is mainly manifested as ear swelling, earache, and hearing loss. If the retrograde infection causes inflammation of the middle ear, it can cause earache and even pus, so you should pay attention to avoid colds and blowing your nose vigorously.

    Sinusitis. It does cause otitis media.

    The ear and nasal passages, which are responsible for maintaining air pressure balance and ventilation, are called eustachian tubes, just behind the nasal cavity. In addition to nasal congestion, sinusitis also has a large amount of purulent discharge along the middle nasal passage to the back end of the nasal cavity, and through the eustachian tube to the ear, resulting in otitis media, especially in children, the eustachian tube is relatively short and more likely to be infected.

    The causes of otitis media are as follows:

    1. If a person with a cold and illness has a throat infection, inflammation will lead to otitis media, and when people are sick, inflammation will spread from the pharynx and nasal cavity to the eustachian tube, and when the inflammation reaches the mucosa of the eustachian tube and the lumen of the eustachian tube, there will be congestion and swelling, and the virus will invade the middle ear, thus causing otitis media.

    2. Swimming can also cause people to suffer from otitis media, there are many people in the swimming pool, the water in it is not as clean as people think, and the ear canal is easy to be infected with bacteria and disinfectants when swimming. If you still have cold symptoms at this time, the chance of developing otitis media doubles.

    3. The continuous decline of people's immunity will also cause otitis media, people will stay up late if they don't rest well, and their immunity will decrease if they lack exercise, if they want to avoid otitis media, they must improve their own immunity, ensure a healthy diet every day, enhance exercise, develop a good work and rest schedule, and avoid bacteria eroding into the body to cause otitis media.

    4. People who smoke regularly will be prone to otitis media, and people who smoke or absorb second-hand smoke for a long time will have arteriosclerosis, because the nicotine in cigarettes will enter the blood to make the body's blood vessels spasm, and the blood vessels supplying the ear are hardened, which will definitely cause insufficient blood supply to the middle ear, so it will cause otitis media.

    Why do I get otitis media? First, people can get otitis media due to a common cold or throat infection. After a person has a cold, the inflammation of the pharynx and nose will continue to spread to the eustachian tube, and then the pharyngeal opening of the eustachian tube and the mucous membrane of the lumen will appear congested and swollen, which will also cause germs to invade the middle ear, which will also cause otitis media.

    Secondly, swimming is also a very important cause of otitis media in people. When swimming, there are more people in the pool, and the water in the pool may not be as clean as people think, so the bacteria and disinfectants in the water will enter the body through the nose or mouth of the human body, which will also lead to the appearance of colds, which will further lead to people suffering from otitis media. Third, if a person is due to lack of sleep or excessive physical exertion, the immunity of the whole person will continue to decline, which will easily lead to bacteria entering the body and suffering from otitis media.

    Fourth, if a person smokes cigarettes for a long time, he is likely to suffer from otitis media, and smoking cigarettes here includes not only his own cigarettes but also inhaling second-hand smoke smoked by others. Because smoking can cause a person's systemic arteriosclerosis, especially the nicotine contained in cigarettes will make small blood vessels cramp after entering the blood, hardening the arterioles of the inner ear, which will cause insufficient blood supply to the inner ear, which seriously affects a person's hearing.
