History andExamination ofEar
3
3.1 Symptoms/History/Chief
Complaints ofEar Diseases
1. Symptoms/chief complaints—There are var-
ious common symptoms with which patients can present to ENT surgeon. These common symptoms are ear discharge, hearing loss, pain, tinnitus, vertigo, injury/trauma, facial palsy, deformity, foreign body, swelling, bleeding and vesicle. Patients can present with single symptoms or combination of symptoms.
(a) Ear discharge—This is one of the com-
monest symptoms of infective ear diseases.
Duration of discharge – Acute discharge (if duration is less
than 12 weeks)—ASOM, trauma, CSF otorrhoea or furunculosis.
– Chronic discharge (if duration is
more than 12 weeks)—CSOM, allergic, cholesteatoma.
Onset of discharge – Sudden onset (discharge develops
abruptly)—CSF otorrhoea, bleed­ing, ASOM.
– Gradual/insidious onset (discharge
develops slowly)—CSOM, otomycosis.
Colour of discharge—The discharge
has been classied into various types
depending on colour of discharge (Table3.1).
Consistency of discharge – Thin discharge (it is watery so that it
can ow easily) caused by ASOM, CSF otorrhoea, eczematoid derma­titis, acute infection in CSOM.
– Thick discharge (thick, stick to
wall) caused by CSOM, cholestea­toma, wax, otomycosis, tubercular otitis media (OM), furunculosis, allergic otitis media.
Type of discharge—The various
types of ear discharge have been reported (Table3.2).
Table 3.1 Different colours of ear discharge with differ­ential diagnosis

media Yellow CSOM with bacterial infection Reddish (discharge

Brown Wax Black Otomycosis (Aspergillus niger) Red/bleeding Granulation, haemangioma,
Greenish Aspergillus fumigatus
