When children have mild to moderate hearing loss they will show diminished performance. When ever a child’s response is inadequate to expectation, is naughty, is inattentive and or lazy, do not blame the child. The handicap your child faces can be easily appreciated by you with this simple test.

Close both your ears tightly with your index fingers. Now listen to other talk "with and without" the ear plugged. Get the child investigated for mild to moderate hearing loss in a good ENT / audiological centre.

Known as giddiness also. Ear ailment is the commonest cause of giddiness. In ear giddiness, hallucination of movements is the main symptom. It should be differentiated from Dizziness / Blackout / fits / weakness. Ideally for giddiness you should see an ENT specialist.

When there is infection in the ear with a hole [perforation] in the ear drum which does not heal with medical treatment it is called CSOM. Once confirmed CSOM can be cured only by surgery [Tympanoplasty].
