Tinnitus is a common abnormal symptom, which is likely caused by a disease, so it should be taken seriously. Some children may experience tinnitus, at which point they should go to the hospital for examination. If it is caused by a disease, it is necessary to treat the primary disease. So, what should I do if my child has tinnitus?
When a child experiences tinnitus, specific measures should be taken based on the actual situation. Tinnitus in children may be caused by conditions such as otitis media, tympanic membrane perforation, or dizziness, which require professional examination before treatment. Therefore, parents need to take their children to the hospital and cooperate with doctors for active treatment.
When a child has a cold, they may also experience symptoms of tinnitus. Because a cold can cause swelling of the nasal mucosa and Eustachian tube, which can cause negative pressure in the middle ear drum chamber and inward retraction of the tympanic membrane, leading to tinnitus. In addition, some children's tinnitus is also related to adenoid hypertrophy and tonsillar hypertrophy.
If it is caused by a cold, you can give your child some cold medicine to relieve the symptoms of the cold and also alleviate the symptoms of tinnitus. If it is caused by adenoid hypertrophy, children generally experience snoring during sleep, which can be treated through adenoid plasma ablation. Usually, after resolving the issue of adenoid hypertrophy, the symptoms of tinnitus in children can disappear.
