Detailed treatment details
Ear
Ear symptoms
Otitis media is a common disease in children.
Crying at night and being in a bad mood. Does not respond well when spoken to. The TV is loud.
I often touch my ears. Repeated fever of unknown cause. If you have these symptoms, you may suspect otitis media.
Early detection can prevent it from becoming more serious or recurring, and lowers the risk of hearing loss.
In addition, symptoms such as sudden ringing in the ears and the feeling that your ears are blocked, or difficulty hearing in one ear when you wake up in the morning may indicate hearing loss due to neurological disorder.
Hearing loss due to acute neurological damage becomes difficult to treat after 2 weeks of onset.
