Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Conductive hearing loss (hearing impairment caused by inflammation or trauma) can generally be controlled and hearing improved through timely hospital treatment. Currently, some children with acute purulent inflammation suffer further deterioration in their hearing due to incorrect or delayed treatment, failing to control the inflammation promptly. Such cases are quite common. Sensorineural hearing loss should be promptly examined in a hospital, including genetic testing and assessment of the degree of hearing loss. For mild to moderate hearing loss, compensation should be provided (such as timely use of hearing aids), while for severe hearing loss, cochlear implantation should be considered.
