Nasal physiology in swimmers and swimmers' sinusitis.

abstract：CONCLUSIONS:Thorough otomicroscopical examination of the tympanic membrane in acute otitis media (AOM) might distinguish AOM episodes caused by different bacteria. It thus might be a way to select appropriate treatment for each patient without raising the number of dangerous complications. OBJECTIVES:The aim of this s...
