What Causes Fluid In The Middle Ear?

Go for impedance audiometry and treatment according to report
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your query; most probably suggest that you may be suffering from the secretory otitis media.
To rule out secretory otitis media( fluid in the middle ear) you may go for the impedance audiometry. It is absolute necessary for better management.
In this condition in our patient I prescribed
1. Systemic steroid if not contraindicated.
2. Systemic nasal decongestant.
3. Mucolytic tablet such as acetyl cystein.
4. Steam inhalation three times a day for at least five minutes.
5. Valsalva manoeuvre.
Either send me the report of impedance audiometry or consult with your ENT specialist.
Wish you speedy recovery.
Thanks


Yes, this contribute
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
Deviated nasal septum contribute in your above mentioned disease. If you have symptomatic deviated nasal septum i.e. nasal obstruction symptoms, then I strongly recommend you to go for septoplasty. This will aid in the treatment of middle ear fluid collection.
Wish you speedy recovery.
Thanks
