Suggest Treatment For Hearing Loss After An Ear Infection

incision to ear drum if you want immediate results
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query; i could go through your previous history of Asthma and recurrent problems.
Well: the present problem : The hearing to this particular ear is gone for a simple reason that the secretions whether serous or purulent has pent-up in the middle ear and made the tympanic membrane immobile- this gives you the feeling of blockage- reduced hearing- fullness.
Your Question:: When should this get better/ when is it time to go to a doctor for this? Are there any home remedies I can do?
>> If you want immediate results , the best way is to have a consultation with your ENT Surgeon, discuss and request whether a very small and skilled surgery of Tympanotomy ( making a small slit and suctioning the secretions out of the middle ear cavity) will help you. This is a day-care procedure with immediate results , early and complete recovery. You can be back to work on the nest day.
Another option is to continue the medicines you are already under and add antihistamines, anti-inflammatory medicines. Some Doctors do add steroids for an early recovery. This takes around 2 to 3 weeks for the ''resolution'' as the fluid is in the restricted/ confined place.
Home remedies:: Plain water steam inhalations ( never add anything to the boiling water) after instilling nasal decongestant drops- 4 times a day; Never to blow nose, No drops or anything to into the ear,
Try:: to increase your resistance power >> Vitamin A and D in therapeutic dosage, multivitamins, avoid all allergens , no pets, cotton wherever possible, avoid dusty atmosphere, wet dusting or vacuum cleaning.
