Ear Injury
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
An ear injury encompasses different types of damage that can affect the outer, middle, or inner ear, whether from blows, pressure changes, intense noise, or the introduction of objects.
Frequent symptoms: It can present with pain, reduced hearing, ringing, a sensation of a plugged ear, dizziness, or, in some cases, drainage of fluid.
When to see a doctor? It is prudent to consult after a blow to the ear, exposure to very loud noise, or when hearing loss, intense pain, or bleeding appear.
Which specialist treats it? The otolaryngologist is the one who evaluates ear injuries, and the general practitioner can provide guidance for the initial care. In the face of persistent ear discomfort, the advisable course is to request a professional review.
