Hello Friend
Welcome to H.C.M
three myringoplasty is done and that must have failed . possibility of other focal infection is very high. there may be infection of the sinuses. there need to be proper workup of your case and if you are suffering with sinusitis or Recurrent URTI then that needs to be treated first.
But still I would suggest you to consult the Good E.N.T Specialist . Please don’t hesitate to consult and ask for any more query. i will be pleased to answer.
With best wishes for a speedy cure
