How is otitis media caused? Who is susceptible to these diseases?

Otitis media is caused by bacteria that infect the middle ear, and there are many triggers, some are traumatic infections, some are physical fire, liver fire and people who smoke and drink alcohol have a high chance of getting sick.

Otitis media is usually caused by a respiratory infection. Or the ears got into the water while swimming, and they were not treated in time. It may be caused by staying up late and getting on the fire.

People who are more susceptible to this disease include night owls, rhinitis patients, swimmers, spicy diets, swimmers, etc.

Otitis media is an inflammatory reaction that may occur after a cold and fever, sinusitis, an acute attack of rhinitis, or choking on water in a swim or bath due to the action of the eardrum. In addition, babies with enlarged glands are also prone to otitis media.

Otitis media disease**.

1. **: Acute otitis media is an acute purulent inflammation of the mucosa of the middle ear, which is most commonly infected by the eustachian tube. After a cold, the inflammation of the pharynx and nose spreads to the eustachian tube, the mucosa of the pharyngeal opening and lumen of the eustachian tube is congested and swollen, the ciliary movement is impaired, and the pathogenic bacteria invade the middle ear, causing otitis media.

The common pathogens are mainly pneumococcus, Haemophilus influenzae, etc., so preventing colds can reduce the chance of otitis media.

In addition, cigarette smoking, including secondhand smoke, can also cause otitis media. Smoking can cause systemic arteriosclerosis, especially the nicotine in cigarettes into the blood, which makes small blood vessels spasm and viscosity increases, and hardens the arterioles of the inner ear blood, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the inner ear, which seriously affects hearing. Cigarettes can not only cause otitis media, but also aggravate the condition of otitis media, and in severe cases, it can cause permanent deafness in patients with otitis media.

At the same time, NNK, a strong carcinogen in cigarettes, can cause malignant lesions of otitis media, seriously affect the pulse nerve, cause long-term headache and frequent dizziness, and cause hemiplegia. Therefore, infants and otitis media patients in the family should not smoke cigarettes and try not to be exposed to secondhand smoke.

There are also large decibels of rock and roll with headphones for a long time, if the time is long, it is also easy to cause chronic otitis media, causing tissue damage to the ear, hearing loss and other complications in severe cases, such as otitis media.

2. Pathogenesis:

Chronic otitis media is chronic inflammation of the mucosa, tympanic membrane, or bone mass of the middle ear, often coexisting with chronic mastoiditis.

Acute otitis media can also develop if it is not timely**, or if it is severe.

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.

Functional ventilatory dysfunction. The tensor palatine sail muscle, levator palatine muscle and eustachian tube pharyngeal muscle in children are weak and contractile, coupled with the immature development of eustachian tube cartilage and poor elasticity, when the eustachian tube is in a state of negative pressure, the wall of the cartilage segment is very easy to collapse, resulting in negative pressure in the middle ear.

Otitis media is an inflammatory lesion affecting all or part of the structure of the middle ear (including the eustachian tube, tympanic cavity, tympanic sinus, and mastoid airlock) and can occur at all ages, most often in children under three years of age. Otitis media can be caused by bacterial and viral infections, mostly due to colds, flu, sinusitis and other diseases, and can also develop from other diseases, such as foreign bodies in the ear canal, ear canal tumors, etc., which can develop into otitis media.

Analysis: Section.

6. Incorrect nose picking, blowing dirt into the middle ear through the eustachian tube, inducing otitis media. Clause.

2. After the tympanic membrane is perforated, the pain is suddenly reduced, and the pus flows from the middle ear into the external auditory canal, and the symptoms of ear pus appear. Clause.

5. Incorrect feeding method, infants choking on milk into the eustachian tube induce otitis media.

Go to the central hospital for a check-up, don't think it's a trivial matter, don't be afraid of 10,000.

Acute otitis media is considered to have spread to the pharynx. The ear and pharynx are joined by a eustachian tube. The eustachian tube in children is relatively short. Prone to inflammation.

Hello, due to the different degrees of otitis media, some are serious and some are mild, many patients think that the disease of the ear, you can take medicine and drop drops of ear syrup, it can be easily cured, even if it is not relieved at that time, I feel that I can be easily cured, in fact, this kind of thinking and practice is very terrible, will bring great harm to the patient, because otitis media is a disease that has a lot of harm.

In addition, if there is chronic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis and chronic tonsillitis, bacteria may repeatedly invade the middle ear cavity, and otitis media may latent to cause chronic otitis media.

Otitis media is not terrible, what is terrible is that it does not matter if it is not, if it affects hearing, it will have a very big impact on life, so you must be early **, and pay more attention to your daily life.

This is still easy**, it is recommended as soon as possible**.

Hello, is otitis media a terrible disease?

There are two types of otitis media, one is purulent otitis media, which is mostly caused by colds. The first earache is obvious, swelling pain, and fever may be relieved after the tympanic membrane is perforated and pus is discharged. The other is called non-purulent otitis media.

This type of otitis media does not drain pus, but only the ears are stuffy, hearing loss, or there is tinnitus. This is caused by a change in pressure in the middle ear cavity caused by inflammation of the Eustachian tube. The ** of purulent otitis media is:

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. Topical ear: If the pus is large and thick, wash with hydrogen peroxide and then apply sensitive antimicrobial ear drops.

It is an inflammatory lesion involving all or part of the middle ear structure, which is more common in children, and can be divided into two categories: non-purulent and purulent. You can go to Wuhan Minsheng Eye and Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist Hospital**.

The main symptoms of otitis media are as follows:

1. Ear pain, there will be pain in the deep part of the ear, and it will gradually worsen;

2. The ears will bleed pus, sometimes this pus is mucus, sometimes purulent;

3. Hearing loss and tinnitus, hearing will decrease, there will be ear stuffiness or nasal congestion, tinnitus can sometimes be mild or severe, which is the main symptom.

Otitis media is divided into acute and chronic, if it is acute otitis media, it will be accompanied by systemic symptoms, such as fever, loss of appetite and other symptoms, and pain and pus will be more obvious, the severity of chronic otitis media systemic symptoms are not necessarily, may be relatively mild, mainly hearing loss, ear pus. Of course, there will be many kinds of otitis media, such as purulent or non-purulent, acute and chronic, which need to be checked and diagnosed with the help of specialized hospitals and otolaryngologists in order to formulate different plans.

Otitis media is a disease that occurs more often in children and is mainly caused by bacterial infections. Otitis media is generally divided into two types, purulent and non-purulent, and no matter which type of otitis media will have a certain impact on the patient.

There are many causes of otitis media. The more common causes are colds and ear trauma. It can also be caused by acute rhinitis, acute sinusitis, and nasopharyngitis.

Some patients are also affected by nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Here's why: Individual differences.

The main danger of otitis media is that it is easy to cause related symptoms. The more common symptoms are tinnitus, hearing loss, earache, and ear tightness. A small number of patients have severe middle ear inflammation that can also cause both intracranial and extracranial complications.

After the onset of the disease, it is recommended to go to the otolaryngology department as soon as possible.

I was infected by bacteria, often ate heavy food, often did not drink water, was very stressed, and often stayed up late. This disease is very serious, sometimes it can cause a perforated eardrum that can cause severe hearing damage, it may cause facial paralysis through extraoral exercises, and abscess may appear.

I often eat chili peppers, smoke and drink a lot, often stay up late, have a lot of mental pressure, and don't pay attention to personal hygiene. It can cause severe pain that can affect the eardrum, damage your hearing, and eventually cause damage to your nerves.
