my husband has recently started to have very bad ringing in his left ear and lots of pain. He can barely hear anything out of the ear. Doctor told him he had air behind the eardrum . Was given antibiotics and was told to take sudafed ..Gradually he s losing his hearing..what can we do? please help!
Hi Lydia My name is Karen I have MS (multiple sclerosis) I am currently having the same problem my GP seems to think it is exasperation of my MS, I don't know if I will get my hearing back but I just thought I would let you know my situation. Has he ever had any other symptoms like dizziness, tingling in fingers, feet and lots of other things . Have a look at MS online if this rings any bells.
Regards
you have wrote that doc told there is air behind eardrum. little amount of air is always needed for hearing its not abnormal. whats age of your husband has he got attack of cold recent past. consult ENT surgeon let him see his ear and then get audiogram and impedence done.
hello lydia... his condition can b completley cured n his hearing will come back to normal with homeopathic medicine.. consult a homeopath.. god bless...
You get an impedance audiometry done, this will identify the amount of fluid and the compliance of the ear drum. Then the doctor might plan to insert tubes inside the ear to relieve the fluid. Please, do consult an ENT specialist. Also, advise him to take steam inhalation 3-4 times/day, saline nasal drops 3 drops 3-4 times/day and drink plenty of warm water. This will relieve the eustachian tube (the tube connecting nose and the ear).
