Chronic Otitis Media is a long-lasting ear infection that affects the middle ear, which is the space behind the eardrum. This condition can lead to fluid buildup, causing hearing loss and discomfort. It often occurs in children but can affect people of all ages. Factors such as allergies, respiratory infections, and anatomical issues can contribute to its development. Treatment for Chronic Otitis Media may include antibiotics to clear infections and, in some cases, surgery to drain fluid or repair the eardrum. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are essential for managing this condition and preventing complications related to hearing, such as hearing loss.
