Otitis media is a common and frequently occurring disease in clinical practice. It is divided into acute otitis media and chronic otitis media, as well as another type known as cholesteatoma otitis media, or middle ear cholesteatoma. Currently, the main treatment for acute otitis media involves anti-infection therapies. For chronic otitis media or middle ear cholesteatoma, the treatment primarily involves surgical methods to remove pathological tissue within the ear and to repair structural damage. Generally speaking, otitis media is treatable. However, some cases of otitis media, due to frequent acute flare-ups, prolonged infiltration, and accompanying structural pathologies, can be relatively tricky to treat. But this does not mean that otitis media cannot be treated or cured.
