Otitis media is usually an inflammation of the mucous membrane of the body’s tympanic chamber. Patients may exhibit fever, cold, hearing loss, loss of appetite, and pain in the ear. Otitis media usually cannot be cured. Active treatment and active prevention in life can prevent recurrence of otitis media. During the treatment of otitis media, you must pay attention to maintaining good hygiene in the nasopharyngeal area and clean it regularly to prevent germs from entering the middle ear and causing inflammation. Usually, you should be very careful when removing the ear wax and not to dig too hard. You should moisten the ear wax first and then dig to avoid damaging the eardrum. At the same time, if you have an otitis media attack, do not swim or take a bath, as it is easy for water to enter the ear canal and aggravate the condition. If water enters the ear, use a cotton swab to absorb it in time. Physical exercise in daily life is very important to increase the body’s resistance and reduce colds, which are a common cause of otitis media recurrence. Otitis media usually has many after-effects, so it is important to take extra care in daily life to prevent recurrence of otitis media.
