- Ear Problems and Care.
- That's why ear care is so important. ...
- The ear has three parts: the pinna, or auricle, the middle ear and the inner ear. The pinna is a flap that forms the outer section of the ear. ...
- The middle ear, which processes sound, consists of the tympanic cavity, the eardrum and the auditory ossicles, a series of tiny bones known as the hammer (malleus), anvil (incus) and stirrup (stapes). Sound waves travel down the ear canal to the eardrum, where they are transmitted across the middle ear by the auditory ossicies to the inner ear. ...
- Small fluid-filled tubes, or canals, make up part of the inner ear. ... The rest of the inner ear consists of the cochlea, a snail-shaped tube that converts sound vibrations into messages, and the auditory nerve, which carries the messages to the brain, where they are translated into meaningful sounds. ...
- Ear Problems .
- Ear infections are common in dogs, and dogs with heavy, hairy, hanging ears have them the most often. The canine ear canal is very long and makes a right angle turn into the ear drum. Dogs with floppy ears have ear canals that are shut off from air and can stay moist and warm: an ideal environment for bacterial growth. Untreated ear infections can develop into chronic conditions which are very painful to the dog and may cause deafness. ...
- How can you tell if your dog's ears are healthy? Take a look -- make a visual inspection of each ear - inside and out. A healthy ear should be free of debris, dirt or excess wax, with no sores or inflammation. ... An ear with an unpleasant odor is an ear that needs attention. ... Are they extremely warm to the touch or sensitive? Ear infections can be painful, so if your dog whimpers when you touch its ears, there may be a problem. ...

30. The Canine Ear
- www.workingdogs.com
- An Ear Full of Auditory Advice.
- A wise old doctor once said, "Never put anything in your ear smaller than your elbow. " This doctor could have been a veterinarian instructing you about ear care in the dog. Without a doubt, one of the most common problems that crosses the veterinarian's exam table is otitis externa (infection or inflammation of the external ear canal). Surprisingly, most ear infections can be forestalled by proper preventative care by the pet's owner. Often pet owners unknowingly make the problem worse by inappropriately treating the ear with improper medication or by traumatizing the ear during cleaning. The best way of preventing this is to take your dog to your veterinarian once you notice any ear problems and learn proper ear cleaning techniques. ...
- I once had a pet owner complain that she had been treating her dog for what she thought were ear mites (a parasite found in the ear) for weeks and had not been successful at resolving the problem. Upon examination of her dog's ear canal, I found several pieces of spear grass embedded near the ear drum and gently extracted them. All the ear mite medication in the world would not have re-solved the problem. ...
- To understand the dog's ear problems better, we must initially understand that the dog's ear canal is anatomically different than that of the human ear. Unlike the human ear, the dog's ear has two compartments. Beginning at the opening of the ear canal, the vertical canal travels downward towards the dog's jaw. Then it makes a 45 degree turn and travels horizontally towards the ear drum. ... Also, as a rule, most breeds have a much longer ear canal than humans. These differences predispose the dog's ear to infection as well as make treatment more difficult. ...

- (6) The oval window, a drum-like membrane separating the middle ear from the inner ear. It causes fluid in the inner ear to move in the cochlea. ...
- Middle ear surgery can restore the conductive component of the hearing loss in many people, but it will not eliminate the sensorineural loss. ...
- Progression of the Hearing Loss - The first sign of otosclerosis is a small growth of spongy bone tissue in the middle ear, often in front of the oval window which separates the middle ear from the inner ear. ...
- It may also start in one ear first, but often the other ear develops otosclerosis as well. ...
- The maximum amount of hearing loss that can be caused by the middle ear conductive problems alone is 50-60 dB, that is, in the moderate range. ...
- It may be due to abnormal blood flow or enzymes produced by the otosclerostic process in the middle ear rather than to the growth of otosclerotic tissue in the inner ear. ...
- Eliminating the gene itself would be more difficult, and efforts in that direction would probably be targeted at the gene in the cells of the ear rather than in preventing the transmission of the gene from generation to generation. ...

- What is Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease?.
- Autoimmune inner ear disease(AIED) is a syndrome of progressive hearing loss and/or dizziness that is caused by antibodies or immune cells which are attacking the inner ear. ...
- The immune system is complex and there are several ways that it can damage the inner ear. ...
- What Causes Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease?.
- The cause of AIED is generally assumed to be related to either antibodies or immune cells that cause damage to the inner ear. ...
- Bystander damage: Damage to the inner ear causes cytokines to be released which provoke (after a delay) additional immune reactions. ...
- Cross-reactions: Antibodies or rogue T-cells cause accidental inner ear damage because the ear shares common antigens with a potentially harmful substance, virus, or bacteria that the body is fighting off. ...
- Intolerance: The ear, like the eye, may be only a partially immune privileged locus. This means that the body may not know about all of the inner ear antigens, and when they are released (perhaps following surgery or an infection), the body may wrongly mount an attack on the "foreign" antigen. ... This theory is not presently in favor for the ear. ...
