Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of otitis externa treatment, and particularly to an earplug suitable for the treatment of mycotic otitis externa. Background Art
[0002] External auditory canal: The external auditory canal is a curved duct that extends medially from the external auditory meatus deep in the concha auriculae to the tympanic membrane. It can conduct the sound waves collected by the auricle to the tympanic membrane. The direction is first inward, forward, and upward, then turns inward, backward, and upward, and then turns inward, forward, and downward.
[0003] The outer 1 / 3 of the external auditory canal is based on the external auditory canal cartilage and is the cartilaginous external auditory canal. The inner 2 / 3 is based on bone and is the bony external auditory canal. The junction between the two is relatively narrow; the narrow part is about 2 cm from the external auditory meatus. The narrowest part of the external auditory canal is called the isthmus, which has the function of preventing foreign objects from entering the external auditory canal and invading the tympanic membrane. The external auditory canal cartilage is continuous with the auricle cartilage. Clinically, when examining the tympanic membrane, lifting the auricle upward and backward can straighten the external auditory canal for easy observation.
[0004] In the otology department, patients coming for the treatment of otitis externa are often encountered. For the inflammation of the external auditory canal, the commonly used method now is to drop anti-inflammatory liquid into the ear. However, after the anti-inflammatory liquid is dropped, the patient cannot move around at will, and the anti-inflammatory drug in the ear canal is likely to flow out. Therefore, an improved technology is urgently needed to solve this problem existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention
