Diagnosing an Ear Infection
A doctor diagnosing an ear infection may look in the patient's ear to see if there is any inflammation. This eMedTV Web page describes the steps involved in an ear infection diagnosis, which may include tympanometry and other tests.
Diagnosing Vestibular Schwannoma
Diagnosing vestibular schwannoma may involve a physical exam, hearing tests, CT scans, and MRIs. This eMedTV resource describes the steps involved in diagnosing vestibular schwannoma and explains why the tumor can be difficult to diagnose.
Drug Interactions With Meclizine
Alcohol, anticholinergic drugs, and pramlintide medications may cause negative meclizine drug interactions. This eMedTV segment lists other medicines that may interfere with meclizine and describes the potential effects of these drug interactions.
Ear Infection
An ear infection is typically caused by bacteria or a virus and most often affects young children. This eMedTV article offers an overview of the most common type of ear infection (otitis media), including information about its symptoms and treatment.
Ear Infection and Hearing Loss
Ear infection and hearing loss can have a cause-effect relationship. As this eMedTV segment explains, hearing loss due to an ear infection is usually temporary; however, if left untreated, an ear infection may lead to permanent hearing impairment.
