Understanding Mastoiditis

Mastoiditis is a serious bacterial infection that affects the mastoid bone, located behind the ear. It often arises due to untreated or recurrent middle ear infections (otitis media), leading to inflammation and the formation of pus-filled cavities. If left untreated, it can cause severe complications such as hearing loss, facial nerve damage, and brain infections.

​

Symptoms of Mastoiditis

• Persistent ear pain and swelling

• Foul-smelling ear discharge

• Redness and tenderness behind the ear

• High fever and general fatigue

• Hearing difficulties or loss in the affected ear

• Swelling that pushes the ear outward

​

Advanced Treatment Options for Mastoiditis

At Relentcare ENT Centre, Thrissur, we provide comprehensive treatment for mastoiditis, focusing on effective and long-lasting relief.

Our treatment options include:

​

1. Medical Management

• Antibiotic Therapy: High-dose antibiotics are administered orally or intravenously to combat bacterial infections.

• Ear Drainage Procedures: Insertion of ear tubes to drain infected fluids and relieve pressure.

• Pain & Inflammation Management: Prescription pain relievers and anti-inflammatory medications to ease discomfort.

​

2. Mastoidectomy Surgery

For severe or unresponsive mastoiditis cases, a mastoidectomy is required. This surgical procedure involves removing the infected air cells in the mastoid bone to prevent the infection from spreading.

​

Types of Mastoidectomy We Offer:

​

• Simple Mastoidectomy: Removal of infected mastoid air cells through a small incision.

• Modified Radical Mastoidectomy: Used in cases of extensive infection, preserving hearing function while removing diseased tissue.

• Radical Mastoidectomy: Recommended for chronic cases, involving extensive removal to prevent further complications.
