Mainly differentiated from acute otitis media:

1 Acute otitis media Although the tympanic membrane is acutely congested, there is generally no formation of blood blister.

2 The main lesions of acute otitis media are in the middle ear, and the main lesion of bullous tympanitis is in the tympanic membrane.

3 acute otitis media is not closely related to eustachian tube disease.

4 acute otitis media is mainly treated with antibiotics, while bullous tympanitis is mainly treated with antiviral drugs.
