The blockage of the ear after the sore throat is cured may be related to acute secretory otitis media, acute nasopharyngitis and other diseases, which need to be selected according to the cause and the degree of the disease, such as general treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.
1. Acute secretory otitis media: when the inflammation in the oropharynx that caused the sore throat goes upward and involves the middle ear through the Eustachian tube pathway, acute secretory otitis media may occur, which is prone to produce negative pressure in the middle ear and fluid accumulation in the middle ear, leading to a sense of blockage in the ear.
If there are symptoms of infection, anti-infection treatment such as amoxicillin and cefuroxime can be applied; furosemide nasal drops and mometasone furoate nasal spray can be sprayed in the nose, so as to make the nasal cavity open and the Eustachian tube open. Mucus promoting agents, such as eucalyptus pinocarpine enteric soft capsule, to promote middle ear mucus drainage. In the absence of abnormal nasal secretion, Eustachian tube blowing treatment is optional. If necessary, tympanocentesis and tympanotomy are feasible.
2. Acute nasopharyngitis: ear blockage can be caused by acute bacterial inflammation of the oropharynx spreading to the nasopharynx. It can be manifested as nasal congestion and running or mucopurulent snot. And often have nasopharyngeal dryness or burning sensation symptoms, sometimes with a headache. When the Eustachian tube pharyngeal orifice is involved, it can cause ear blockage.
According to the type of pathogenic bacteria to choose sensitive antibiotics, such as amoxicillin, cefuroxime and other anti-infective treatment; for the nasopharyngeal edema is obvious, the use of dexamethasone and other glucocorticosteroids can be given intravenously; to hydroxymethazoline nasal spray nasal and 3% streptomycin nasal drops drops, anti-inflammatory, reduce swelling.
When the sore throat is well after the ear blockage, need to actively seek medical system check, clear diagnosis and degree of illness, follow the doctor’s instructions standardized diagnosis and treatment.
