Service Providers for Otomycotic Plug (Lt. Ear) for C/S
This test diagnoses fungal infections in the ear canal (otomycosis) by identifying pathogens and determining their sensitivity to treatment. Preparation involves cleaning the outer ear, avoiding ear drops before the test. During the test, a healthcare provider removes the plug and takes a sample from the ear for culture. Risks include mild discomfort or temporary dizziness. After the test, no special care is needed. Results help identify the type of fungus and its sensitivity to antifungal medications. Conditions like chronic ear infections, diabetes, or weakened immunity can affect the test's outcome.
