Otitis Media - Middle Ear Infections

The ear infections your child suffers from
are most likely middle ear infections, known
as otitis media. Middle ear infections, which
affect half of all children by age one, and
ninety percent of them by age six, is a
swelling or infection of the middle ear. The
problem is caused by any one of a variety of
bacteria or viruses, or by allergy or fungus.
Often there is a cold or throat infection
before the onset of the middle ear infection.
Bacteria and viruses get into the middle
ear through the eustachian tube, which
opens into the mouth and throat. A cold or
sore throat can prevent the tube from drain-
ing normally, and a blocked tube is the
perfect place for bacteria or viruses to grow.
In some cases, the increased pressure of the
fluid within the middle ear can force infec-
tion into the porous mastoid bone next to
the ear, or break the eardrum. The combina-
| tion of a small eustachian tube and a rela-
tively immature immune system makes
with symptoms that include a sense of full-
ness in the ear, fever and hearing loss. Hear-
ing is affected when the accumulated fluid
prevents the eardrum from vibrating—nec-
essary for transmitting sound into the inte-
rior portions of the ear.
Otitis media is never a problem to be
treated lightly, because if hearing is im-
paired for any length of time, a child can
quickly get behind in learning and language
skills. Otitis media is the most common
cause of hearing loss in children.
Antibiotics are used successfully in treat-
ing otitis media in most children. However,
in children who have stubborn or recurrent
middle ear problems that affect hearing and
classroom learning, a minor surgical proce-
dure to drain the fluid may be necessary.
Some children may, at that time, require the
placement of a tiny tube through the ear-
drum that provides continuous drainage for
as long as the tube remains in place, usually
between 6 months to a year.

Luksic plays important
role for King's team
At 6-8, Dallas High School
graduate Mike Luksic is the tallest
player on the King's College bas-
ketball roster this season.
Thanks to the Eagle System in
the King's gym, Mike has increased
his weight by 20 pounds since his
freshman year and is much
stronger.
“Mike should help us under the
boards in his sophomore season,”
observed Coach Ken Atkins.
“He gained good experience with
our junior varsity under Coach
Skip Milford last season and also
gained limited varsity experience,”
he added.
Coach Atkins admits he will have
one of his youngest teams in seven
years with no seniors on the squad.
But he feels his sophomores
gained valuable experience as
freshmen and several were start-
ers.
“Our co-captains are both sophs
in John Snyder from GAR and Jeff
Thomas out of Hanover Township
Area.
- Luksic expects to see the
Kingsmen tangle with a big Scran-
ton team for MAC honors, although
the Crusaders from Syracuse,
defending MAC champions, are
loaded to repeat.
“If our young players can pro-
duce, King's could be tough to
Mike Luksic
handle this season,” commented
Luksic.
