Question
A few days ago, I suddenly felt stuffy and painful in my ear, with my hearing becoming blurred, sometimes good and sometimes bad, alternating in both ears. What kind of problem might my ear have?
Answer
Hello, according to your description, you may be experiencing sudden hearing loss, particularly a decrease in low-frequency hearing, accompanied by a sensation of ear fullness and echo. This condition may be related to acute secretory otitis media and requires timely treatment. It is recommended to use hormone-based antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs for intravenous treatment to reduce ear swelling, eliminate tinnitus, and potentially improve or restore hearing. Additionally, symptomatic treatment with a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine is more effective. It is suggested that you visit an otolaryngology department for a detailed examination and professional treatment.
