What should I do if my ears have poor hearing?

After your ears have poor hearing, have you ever asked your doctor these questions:

"Can taking medicine restore hearing?"

 "Can surgery treat hearing loss?"

The fact is that we need to analyze specific situations. Some ear diseases caused hearing loss can be eliminated by topical medication or oral antibiotics to restore hearing. Let's look at the related matters of ear diseases and surgery in detail below.

 

Why is there ear disease

Ear diseases, including external ear (auricle, external auditory canal) and middle ear diseases, are clinically often caused by external ear injury, inflammation, foreign body puncture, and cerumen embolism. In addition to congestion and edema of the external ear, it is often accompanied by mouth-opening chewing disorder and tragus tenderness or pinna traction pain. Otitis media and its complications or earache caused by middle ear cancer does not have the signs of external earache. This type of earache is also called primary earache.

 

Earache caused by neural reflexes from adjacent or distant organs, such as impacted teeth, dental caries, malocclusion, temporomandibular arthritis, acute tonsillitis of the throat, peritonsillar abscess, tonsillectomy, ulcer patients , Malignant tumors, cervical osteoarthritis, and pediatric upper respiratory and digestive tract diseases can cause involved ear pain. The trigeminal nerve, glossopharyngeal nerve, facial nerve, vagus nerve, and cervical nerve branches can reflect pain to the ear. Earache is also called secondary earache.

What ear surgery can treat hearing loss

1. Middle ear tube placement

Ear effusion caused by secretory otitis media usually causes temporary conductive hearing loss, that is, the secretions in the ear block the path of sound transmission in, making the sound sound less. If the condition of secretory otitis media is long, after medication or repeated tympanic membrane puncture, the recurrent episodes are still unhealed, the middle ear tube can be used, also called tympanic tube.

 

"Open an opening" and "insert a tube" on the tympanic membrane to lead the inexhaustible effusion from the ear, open up the sound conduction pathway, and relieve the pressure of the tympanic membrane caused by the full ear effusion, thereby improving hearing loss.

 

2. Stapes surgery

In addition to the secretions in the ears blocking the sound's path, it is also possible that the auditory ossicles in the middle ear are dysfunctional and unable to continue the sound transmission. This ear problem is also a conductive hearing loss. Otosclerosis is a common auditory ossicle dysfunction. It is caused by bone hyperplasia in the stapes bottom plate of the middle ear auditory ossicles, which causes the stapes to be fixed, and the sound cannot be transmitted inward, resulting in hearing loss.

 

The stapes resection is based on the condition of the stapes, which is partially or completely removed, and then an artificial stapes is installed to maintain the sound transmission of the ossicles, thereby treating the hearing loss caused by the fixation of the stapes. 

 

 

How can irreversible sensorineural hearing loss be improved

Sensorineural hearing loss is usually caused by natural aging of the body, long-term high-intensity noise, ototoxic drugs, genetics, etc. Although permanent hearing loss cannot be "cured", it is recognized internationally that patients can use hearing aids, cochlear implants and other hearing aids to amplify sound, improve hearing, and improve communication. Therefore, ear hearing is not good. Depending on the specific situation, some medicines are available, some require surgery, and some seem to be unable to restore hearing and can also be "hearing aid."
