Patient's question:
My son was just born two days ago. Yesterday, a thorough hearing check was conducted, and the doctor said my son has hearing impairment. The newborn screening did not pass, but everything else is quite normal. No issues were found during the 4D ultrasound examination either. Now, with my son's hearing impairment, I am particularly worried. What should I do about my child's hearing impairment?Doctor's answer:
The newborn hearing aid failed the thorough examination. Generally, further detailed examinations are required for diagnosis to check if there is a risk of congenital epilepsy. Treatment can be administered through the implantation of a cochlear implant. If active treatment is not pursued, it is usually less likely to develop symptoms of deafness and mutism. Pay attention to closely monitor for any recurrence of increased purulent discharge. In this case, it is necessary to go to the hospital.
