Abstract

Otitis externa is one of the most common conditions seen in the otolaryngology practice. It encompasses a wide range of conditions, from those that cause mild inflammation and discomfort to those that are life-threatening. The management of these conditions requires a clear understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the ear canal, the microbiology of pathogens and familiarity with the clinical presentation.
