Ankylotia

Ankylote (Ankylot) is a disease that is characterized by tissue proliferation due to inflammation in the ear cavity, which leads to disruption of the normal function of the ear. If left untreated, the disease can lead to serious complications and even death. In this article we will talk about the causes of the disease, its symptoms and treatment methods.

Causes of ankylosis

Ankylotic disease develops with inflammation of the internal parts of the ear canal, changes in the anatomical structure of the tympanic cavity and the development of the pathological process. The occurrence of the disease is caused by injuries, chronic infections, and the presence of other diseases. It is important that in case of chronic inflammation there is no improvement in the dynamics of clinical manifestations; in such cases, it is better to resort to surgery. Sometimes the causes of the disease are neuromas, tympantriche, vestibular cysts and other pathologies.

Symptoms of the disease

It is important to distinguish the symptoms accompanying the development of this disease at different stages of the disease. Ear pain remains the main symptom. The patient experiences a feeling of ear congestion, a sensation of fullness or squeezing. There is also periodic noise and hearing loss. Swallowing also causes pain, as does chewing. With a pronounced process, discharge from the ear canal is noticeable. As the disease progresses, headaches, fever, weakness, and so on are observed.

Treating ankylosis at home

If these symptoms are detected, it is necessary to urgently contact an ENT doctor to make a diagnosis and prescribe adequate treatment. Independent attempts to get rid of the disease are unacceptable and are fraught with serious consequences for health and life. Otolaryngologists are involved in the treatment of ankylitis, since it is important to correctly determine the cause of the disease.
