Q: What can you not do after eardrum surgery?

For around 2 to 4 weeks, or until your doctor gives the all-clear, refrain from intense activities like bicycling, running, lifting weights, or aerobic exercise. Avoid leaning over and making rapid head movements for the first two or three days following surgery. You could feel lightheaded as a result of these behaviors.

Q: How long does it take to recover from eardrum surgery?

Recovery from a complete tympanoplasty procedure might take two to three months. Your doctor could use a vacuum to gently clean the ear canal at the first post-surgery appointment to examine the repaired eardrum. Until this packing dissolves, the hearing will likely be worse than before the operation.

Q: What are the risks of eardrum surgery?

Surgery for eardrum risks are: Tinnitus, a ringing or buzzing in the ear, frequently gets better with time but can occasionally become permanent. However, there are potential hazards, such as a wound infection, which can result in discomfort, bleeding, or fluid leakage. If you have these symptoms, visit the hospital or your doctor's office.

Q: What is the success rate of eardrum surgery?

Eardrum repairs are often quite successful. Tympanoplasty results in a successful recovery in more than 90% of patients. If your middle ear bones and your eardrum need to be repaired during surgery, the results might not be as good—as eardrum piercing.

Q: How do you sleep after tympanoplasty?

For the first week following surgery, it is advised to sleep with your head raised. In the middle ear cavity and behind the ear, this lessens edema. You can use two or three pillows while sleeping on the bed or put many pillows under the mattress.

Q: How do you wash your hair after ear surgery?

For one week, avoid washing your hair. To do this, use a Q-tip and a solution of half hydrogen peroxide and half water. After washing, apply Neosporin Ointment or the ointment your doctor has advised to the incision area. No drops of water should enter the ear until it has fully healed.

Q: Is tympanoplasty a major surgery?

The smallest of the procedures is this one. Adults get it done in the office, whereas kids do it under anesthetic. A biological tissue paper patch is applied over the hole and secured with a drop of blood or ointment after the hole's margins have been inflamed with a tool or mild acid.

Q: How long after tympanoplasty Can you hear?

After tympanoplasty, a full recovery may take two to three months to complete. Your doctor will do a thorough hearing test for at least 8 to 12 weeks after the surgery. The hearing will start as the packing material gradually dissolves to its total capacity.

It was cold. Blood is coming out of the nose. Even spit. It's been 2 days

Male | 27

Nosebleeds can happen because the air is dry or if you sneeze a lot. If you are spitting blood with a bleeding nose, it might be from the back of your nose. Sit straight up, pinch your nose, and breathe through your mouth. If it doesn’t stop, get help from an ENT specialist.

My left ear has been crackling for a few months now and i got told by a nurse it was blocked and i got my ear syringed two days ago and i was hoping that would stop my ear crackling but it's still crackling after two days since i got my ear syringed is that normal?

Male | 37

Though it's a good thing you got your ear syringed, the ear still crackles which is totally normal. Occasionally, the sensation will last a little while after the procedure. Ear crackling could be the result of the presence of fluid in the middle ear or what is called Eustachian tube dysfunction. Sometimes, you can make yawning or chewing gum movements to relieve the discomfort. If it doesn't get better, see your ENT doctor for more advice.

I have pain while swallowing

Female | 25

This could happen because of a sore throat or infection. Other possibilities are acid reflux or swallowing something sharp accidentally. If it continues for several days, getting it checked is wise. Warm drinks or soft foods might provide relief. Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water is crucial too. Take a break from spicy or rough textures until it passes.

I am a 39 year old man. I have a increased gland beneath my left ear which is not painful but causes some pressing sensation in the inside of my mouth. My ultrasound detected a few enlarged and few subcentimeter cervical lymphnodes.

Male | 39

It sounds like you may be experiencing swelling in your salivary gland and some enlarged lymph nodes in your neck. These could be due to various reasons, including infection or inflammation. It's important to consult an ENT specialist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.

Hey I have a visible epiglottis and a little bit of tonsils at the back of my tongue I have had a heartburn but not anymore the epiglottis is still visible and so are the tonsils ( only 2 now) but they are not painful but I just feel like something is stuck on the right side my throat whenever I swallow saliva and a little bit of a burning sensation after taking an acid reflux medication. Is it normal or a sign of throat cancer

Female | 20

A visible epiglottis and slightly enlarged tonsils can be normal for some people, but the sensation of something stuck in your throat and the burning after taking acid reflux medication might need further evaluation. These symptoms are not necessarily a sign of throat cancer, but it's important to get them checked. I strongly recommend visiting an ENT specialist to assess your condition and provide the right advice.

sir i have problem in cough for long time 1 yr all my cough come from nasal cavity or nose not from my thort how can i cure this can you tell me

Male | 16

Your coughs might be from postnasal drip. Mucus flows down your throat from your nose. Allergies, sinus infections, or acid reflux could cause it. Drink lots of fluids. Use a humidifier. Avoid smoke and other irritants. Try decongestants or saline sprays for relief. But if it doesn't improve, see an ENT doctor. They'll examine you and give proper treatment.

Having some things inside the throat

Female | 20

Feeling like something is stuck in your throat can happen for several reasons. You might have eaten too quickly or didn’t chew your food well enough. Acid reflux or stress can also cause this sensation. To help relieve it, try drinking plenty of water, eating slowly, and not rushing your bites. Managing stress can also help reduce this feeling. Following these tips may provide some relief.
