Patient's question:
When the baby was born, he was a bit hard of hearing. I know that children are not fully developed. But now my child is already 5 years old, and sometimes when I call him, he still doesn't hear. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said she has pediatric hearing impairment. Let's cooperate in treating this matter, and I am a bit worried. Can a child with hearing impairment be cured?Doctor's answer:
If a child experiences hearing impairment again, further careful examination is generally required for diagnosis to check for recurrent ear inflammation. If otitis media occurs again, it can easily lead to hearing loss. Additionally, it is important to carefully observe whether the eardrum may have sustained further damage, as this can also result in hearing loss. Symptomatic medication can be administered, and attention should be paid to enhancing nutrition during daily life.
