耳洞发炎流脓的可能原因及治疗方法
Inflammation and pus discharge from an ear piercing may be caused by otitis media, external otitis, tympanic membrane perforation, and other diseases. It is recommended that patients seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's instructions for treatment after a clear diagnosis.
1. Otitis Media: If a patient already suffers from otitis media, the inflammation may worsen after an ear piercing, leading to inflammation and pus discharge from the piercing. The patient can take cephalexin capsules or amoxicillin capsules under the doctor's guidance.
2. External Otitis: Improper piercing or bacterial infection of the local area during the piercing process may lead to external otitis, causing inflammation and pus discharge from the piercing. The patient can take levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets or azithromycin tablets under the doctor's guidance.
3. Tympanic Membrane Perforation: If the tympanic membrane is damaged during the piercing process, it may lead to perforation, causing inflammation and pus discharge from the piercing. The patient can use ofloxacin ear drops or chloramphenicol ear drops under the doctor's guidance.
4. Other Reasons: If one does not pay attention to the hygiene of the ear area, often scratching or picking at the ear with one's hands, it may lead to skin damage and induce folliculitis, which can also manifest in the symptoms mentioned above. The patient can apply erythromycin ointment or fusidic acid cream under the doctor's guidance.
In daily life, one should maintain good living habits, avoid excessive fatigue and staying up late. Additionally, one should maintain a light diet and eat less spicy and stimulating foods.
