What are the Causes of Ear Pain?

Ear Pain is often Caused by a blockage in the eustachian tube, a passage that runs from the middle ear to the back of the nasal cavity and throat. When the eustachian tube is blocked, air and fluid cannot pass through the passage, causing increased pressure and pain.Ear Infections are a common cause of ear pain, especially in children. Middle ear infections, called otitis media, occur when fluid builds up inside the middle ear.This fluid can then become infected with a bacteria or virus.Children are more likely to get ear infections than adults, in part because their eustachian tubes are smaller and straighter, making it harder for fluid to drain out.Also, their immune systems are still developing, making them more susceptible to infections.

Ear pain may be due to disorder within the ear itself or a disorder in a nearby body part that shares the same nerves to the brain as the ear. Such body parts include the nose, sinuses, throat, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ).Dr Vaishali Sangole is the Best Doctor For Ear Pain in Kharghar.

How is Ear Pain Diagnosed?

For acute pain (pain lasting less than 2 weeks), the most common causes are

  • Middle Ear Infection(otitis media)
  • Infection of the Outer Ear (otitis externa)
  • A sudden change in pressure (barotrauma).
  • Middle Ear and Outer ear Infections cause.Painful Inflammation. A middle ear infection also causes an increase in pressure behind the eardrum (tympanic membrane [TM]).This increase in pressure is painful and causes the eardrum to bulge. Once the eardrum bulges, it sometimes bursts and releases small amounts of pus and/or blood from the ear. In rare cases, the middle ear infection spreads to the mastoid bone behind the ear (causing mastoiditis).
