When sleeping at night in summer

If mosquitoes buzz in your ears

Are you annoyed?

Not long ago, when Mr. Zhou (pseudonym) from Xi'an, Shaanxi Province was sleeping, the noise of mosquitoes "surrounded" his ears. Unable to bear it, Mr. Zhou, who was in a daze, slapped the mosquito directly to kill it. But what he didn't expect was that the mosquito ran away, and because he exerted too much force, his left ear was very painful, and the sound he heard was muffled and accompanied by tinnitus .

After going to a hospital in Xi'an for treatment, Mr. Zhou's left ear was diagnosed with traumatic eardrum perforation and conductive hearing loss. Seeing this result, Mr. Zhou jokingly said that he didn't expect that the mosquito was not killed, but almost made him deaf. According to doctors, traumatic tympanic membrane perforation means that when the tympanic membrane encounters violent vibrations from the outside air (such as palm strikes, firecrackers, explosions, etc.), detonation waves and airflow impacts occur, which can quickly spread to the external auditory canal and rupture the tympanic membrane.

According to the examination, Mr. Zhou's left ear has a large tympanic membrane perforation and is unlikely to heal on its own. The doctor performed eardrum repair on Mr. Zhou. Fortunately, his hearing has returned to normal.

Doctors remind that once there is a perforation of the tympanic membrane caused by external force, timely treatment is required. The doctor will first make a judgment and, if necessary, conduct otoscopic and audiological evaluation. During the recovery process of the eardrum, keep the ear canal clean, do not allow water to enter, and keep the external auditory canal dry. If there is no infection, remember not to instill anti-inflammatory drugs into the ear to prevent bacteria in the external auditory canal from entering the middle ear and causing secondary infection.
