title: [Modern principles of the treatment and prevention of diseases of external ear].
abstract: The problems of diagnostics, treatment and prophylaxis of inflammatory diseases of the external ear remain a challenge for practical otorhinolaryngology. The number of patients presenting with this pathology is still very high despite the availability ofa great variety of pharmacological products for their management. The problem of external otitis arises from its high incidence in conjunction with the poor effectiveness of various medicamental and non-medicamental therapeutic modalities for its treatment.The aforesaid confirms the importance and relevance of the search for the new methods of treatment of this pathology as well as effective therapeutic and preventive agents for this purpose. Of primary importance from the standpoint of prophylaxis of various diseases of external ear is providing adequate care to the patients with trivial cerumen impaction that is a risk factor of external otitis leading to the development of skin lesions in the auditory passage and inflammation in the case of self-removal of the earwax.
