∙ 13y agoIf there is insufficient fluid for bacterial identification, other diagnostic methods such as blood cultures or imaging studies may be used to help determine the causative agent. Clinical presentation and history can also guide antibiotic selection. In some cases, empirical treatment based on common pathogens causing mastoiditis may be initiated.
Identifying the specific bacteria causing mastoiditis is essential to determine the most effective antibiotic treatment. Different bacteria may require different antibiotics for treatment, so knowing the causative agent is crucial for successful management and to prevent potential complications or treatment failure.
Bacteria Virus
Coxsackie is caused by a group of viruses called Coxsackievirus. It is not caused by bacteria.
Yes, typhoid fever is caused by the bacteria Salmonella typhi. It is usually spread through contaminated food or water.

Mastoiditis is caused by the same types of bacteria which cause middle ear infections (Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae).

No. HIV is caused by a virus, not a bacteria.
Yes it is caused by bacteria ....

Yes, staph infection is caused by staphylococcus bacteria.
Impetigo can be caused by the staphylococcus aureus, or the streptococcus pyogenes bacteria.
Lyme disease is caused by the type of bacteria.

Yes, severe or untreated ear infections can spread to the bones surrounding the ear, causing a condition known as mastoiditis. This can lead to additional complications and may require more aggressive treatment, such as antibiotics or surgery to prevent further spreading or damage. It's important to seek medical attention if you suspect an ear infection to avoid complications like mastoiditis.
Multiple sclerosis
It is caused by a bacterium, Bordatella pertussis.
