Otitis externa induced by a foreign body – a case report
Journal Title: New Medicine - Year 2013, Vol 17, Issue 4
Abstract
Foreign body is a rare cause of otitis externa. Foreign bodies which clog the auditory canal completely cause a sensation of a blocked ear, pain, hearing loss and tinnitus. Small inorganic bodies can induce no symptoms. Two patients with severe inflammation of the ear canal, which was caused by a foreign body, were hospitalized at The Department of Paediatric Otolaryngology in 2012 years.
