Question
How to treat post-periosteitis otitis media for better recovery?
Answer
According to patient descriptions, periostitis of the tympanic membrane is caused by viral infection, which may lead to a decrease in hearing but usually does not result in complete deafness. Due to the characteristics of viral infection, the treatment effect of antiviral drugs is limited. It is recommended that patients visit an otolaryngology department for a consultation and undergo treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor. In addition, patients are concerned about whether their hearing will recover after recovery, and doctors suggest that patients go to the hospital for a detailed examination to assess the extent of hearing loss and provide corresponding treatment plans.
