Otitis media with ear blockage and hearing difficulty usually improves within about half a month. Patients must visit the hospital for examination and treatment. Repeated irrigation with normal saline can help alleviate this condition. Additionally, patients may use antibiotics such as cephalosporin capsules for anti-inflammatory treatment. During treatment, maintain good local hygiene and follow a light diet, avoiding spicy or irritating foods.
