Your next case is Billy, a two-and-a-half year old boy. His parents ask for an antibiotic prescription right away. Billy’s mom is sure that he has an ear infection because every time he has had these symptoms, he was diagnosed with an ear infection. Billy’s parents tell you that he is complaining of right ear pain, but he has not had any ear discharge. His symptoms started yesterday afternoon, and this morning his temperature was about 99.5oF. Last week, Billy suffered from a mild cold that he caught at daycare. He recovered from this ailment and is otherwise healthy. On otoscopic examination, you see a bulging and right tympanic membrane. His left tympanic membrane is normal. As his mother suggested, Billy is most likely suffering from acute otitis media and you prescribe Amoxicillin (first line antibiotics) to treat the condition. Due to Billy’s repeated ear infections, you refer him to an ENT for further care. 2. Using correct anatomical terminology, explain to Billy’s parents what is causing his pain and bulging tympanic membrane. Why did this condition develop? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 3.
