1, get rid of the habit of picking your ears. Ear removal will cause ear canal and tympanic membrane damage, and sometimes it will be complicated with infection, which will reduce hearing.
2. Prevent water from flowing into your ears when washing your hair and taking a bath. Because the skin and eardrum are soaked in water, plus the stimulation of earwax (that is, silkworm and earwax), it is easy to cause otitis externa. If there is perforation of tympanic membrane, water entering the ear will lead to the recurrence of otitis media.
3. Have a physical examination before swimming in summer. People suffering from otitis externa, otitis media, external auditory canal cerumen embolism, tympanic membrane perforation and other diseases can only swim after correction.
4, auricle trauma, frostbite should strictly prevent infection, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, because this kind of bacteria can cause auricle perichondritis, cartilage necrosis, and eventually lead to auricle deformity (cauliflower ear).
5. Stay away from noise and explosion places (including setting off firecrackers), because loud noise will lead to noise deafness, while explosion will lead to explosive deafness.
6. Stay away from alcohol, tobacco and ototoxic drugs (such as streptomycin, gentamicin and kanamycin). ) because they are toxic to the auditory nerve.
7. Virus infection (such as measles, mumps, ear herpes zoster, etc.). ) often complicated with sensorineural deafness, preventive measures should be taken in time.
8. Avoid hitting your head or slapping your ears. The former can be complicated with hearing loss, while the latter can lead to tympanic membrane rupture. In life, it is not uncommon for the ear function to be damaged by external force.
9. When blowing your nose, you should master the correct method of blowing your nose: blow your nose one by one in the left and right nasal cavities, and don't pinch your nose at the same time, because the back of the nasal cavity is connected to the middle ear cavity (eustachian tube). Improper blowing your nose will drive nasal secretions into the middle ear cavity, causing otitis media.
10, people with colds, upper respiratory tract infections and eustachian tube dysfunction should not travel by plane, otherwise it may cause aviation otitis media, earache, tympanic membrane congestion, middle ear effusion and even hearing loss.
1 1. For those with systemic diseases, hypertension and arteriosclerosis, nephropathy, diabetes, hypothyroidism, etc. It is the first clinical cause, so the hearing of patients with these diseases should be monitored.
12. Senile deafness is the manifestation of human aging in the auditory organs. Its age and development speed vary from person to person, which is related to heredity and various harmful factors (including diseases) experienced in the whole life process. Therefore, the elderly should have regular hearing tests.
13. Newborns should be routinely screened for hearing, and early intervention should be carried out when hearing impairment is found.
If you can follow the above health care measures, many ear diseases will stay away from you, and your hearing will be protected, so that beautiful voices will accompany you forever.
