We know Otitis Externa is caused by more than just bacteria and fungi, but It’s summertime and visits into the clinic for swimmer's ears are in full effect. So, let’s get you prepared with the most common presentation. Stay tuned.
¡Vamos! Let’s go!
A 7 year old boy that’s been doing lot’s of swimming at his grandma’s house comes into the clinic with the complaint of right ear pain. No fever, no preceding symptoms of an upper respiratory infection, otherwise doing great.
Your child’s ear canal is red, swollen and full of white discharge.
El canal auditivo de tu hijo está rojo, hinchado y lleno de secreción blanca.
This is an otitis externa, most likely caused by bacteria growing in the ear canal secondary to water getting trapped in the ear from swimming.
Es una otitis externa, probablemente por una bacteria que creció a causa del agua atrapado en el oído, siguiendo la natación.
I’m going to prescribe antibiotic ear drops.
Le voy a recetar gotas de antibiótico para el oído.
Be sure to keep the ears dry during the duration of treatment.
Asegúrate de mantener el oído seco durante el tratamiento.
Return to the clinic if not improved in 48 hours and we will send out a culture to rule out a fungal infection.
Regresa a la clínica si no hay mejoría en cuarenta y ocho horas y mandamos un cultivo para asegurar que no es infección de hongo.
