Than and how to treat pain in the ears

Causes of

Let's see what factors cause ear pain.

Mechanical trauma

A common cause of uncomfortable symptoms. With injuries and mechanical injuries, pain arises suddenly: abruptly and unexpectedly.

Traumatize the ear canal and even the tympanic membrane with a cotton swab while trying to clean them from sulfur, or a metal hairpin, other objects.
In addition, children sometimes put themselves in the ears of small items during games that, if they get deep, can also injure internal auditory organs. Trauma to the ears is dangerous in that not only painful sensations may arise, but also the development of an inflammatory infectious process.

Otitis

The most likely cause of pain in the ears. Otitis can be of different types, based in different "sections" of the ear: in the outer, in the middle, and in the inner.

If the otitis has already reached the advanced stage, it can lead to the development of a purulent infection, fraught with perforation of the ear canal. This phenomenon is dangerous not only with severe pain, but also with a complete loss of auditory perception.

Caries

Surprisingly, this tooth disease can also cause an earache. The relationship is as follows: the inflammatory process in the roots of the tooth causes acute pain, which "gives up" in the auditory organs.

In this case, the pain will also be present in the temples, and even in the neck. Fortunately, if the cause is in caries, getting rid of the pain will be quite simple: you just need to treat your teeth.

Infection
