As dɔktɔ, wi kin kɔl dis kɔndishɔn ‘Glue Ear’. insay mεdikal tεm dεm, dεn kin kכl am bak `(Otitis Media wit Effusion - OME)` כ `(Secretory Otitis Media)`. Dis kin apin na wan ɔ ɔl tu pikin in yes. Bɔrku tɛm, dɛn kin si am afta yu dɔn gɛt infɛkshɔn na yu yes, bɔt ɔda rizin kin kam bak. Nɔr wɔri, dis sik kin bɛtɛ afta sɔm tɛm. Bɔt if i kɔntinyu, i kin afɛkt di we aw yu pikin de yɛri.

Wetin rili na ‘Glue Ear’? Aw i kin divɛlɔp?

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, ‘glu ia’ na tik tik stika wata we de gɛda insay yu pikin in midul yes (di ɛmti ples biɛn di ia drɔm). Dɛn kɔl am ‘glu ia’ bikɔs i tan lɛk gɔm.

Imajin, fɔ mek wi yɛri fayn, wi midul yes nid fɔ klia ɛn ful-ɔp wit briz. dis briz de go insay di midul ia tru tu tכb dεm we dεn k כl Yustachian tכb . Dɛn tu tiub ya kin kɔnɛkt wi midul yes ɛn trot. Fɔ tɔk di kɔrɛkt tin, dɛn tiub ya de kɔmɔt na di bak pat na di nos to di trot ɛn go insay di midul yes. wan pan di men wok dεm we dεn Yustachian tכb ya de du na fכ drεn di wata we dεn nכ want we de bכlכp na di midul ia. Wi kin swɛla di wata we kin kɔmɔt na do we wi nɔ no.

dis Yustachian tyub dεm na yכŋ pikin dεm kin wayd pas big pipul dεm, εn dεn kin de כrizכnal bak. So, dɛn nɔ de wok fayn lɛk aw big pipul dɛn kin wok. So, if di pikin in Yustachian tyub dεm blok fכ sכm rizin, di briz nכ de go insay di midul yes. afta dat di sεl dεm we de insay di insay layt na di midul ia bigin fכ mek wan tik tik wata we de stika. Na dat dɛn kin kɔl ‘glu ear’.

we di midul ia fulכp wit wata, di ia dכm nכ kin shek fayn fayn wan. Dɔn sawnd wev dɛn nɔ de travul fayn fayn wan to di insay yes. Na dat mek bebi dɛn nɔ kin ebul fɔ yɛri fayn.
