If the cerumen is dry and hard and difficult to remove, first use 5% sodium bicarbonate solution to soften it, and then use saline to rinse it. If the location of cerumen is deeper, it is also necessary to soften the cerumen first and clean the cerumen with the assistance of otoscope.
3. Otosclerosis: If the disease does not affect the working life, follow-up observation is sufficient, and oral treatment with sodium fluoride can also be tried. If the disease causes obvious hearing loss, it is feasible to perform surgical treatments such as stapes shaking operation, stapedectomy and inner ear opening operation.

If the disease causes uncomfortable symptoms, it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor through microsurgery, stereotactic radiosurgery, radiotherapy and other ways of treatment, so as to control the progress of the disease and alleviate the uncomfortable symptoms.
