Adhesive middle ear disease - what does this mean
Adhesive middle ear disease occurs when the middle ear becomes inflamed due to infection, causing the eardrum to become thickened and sticky. this can lead to a buildup of fluid and mucus in the middle ear, which can cause hearing loss and pain.
What happens during the disease - adhesive middle ear disease
Adhesive middle ear disease is caused by an accumulation of thick, sticky fluid in the middle ear space that leads to a blockage of the eustachian tube. this blockage prevents air from entering the middle ear, leading to a vacuum that causes the middle ear lining to become inflamed and swollen. this swelling causes the adhesion of the middle ear structures, leading to a decrease in hearing and a sensation of fullness in the ear.
