Suggest Treatment For Otosclerosis In Ear
hi i am trying to learn more about otosclerosis i was diagnosed with hearing impairment when i was 11. I am now 25 and I learned that what they are saying caused my hearing loss is otosclerosis. as of now i only have one affected ear. but i have many questions. I am isolated and it will take months to see a local ENT. I have not seen one since i was 12 and he said i had no hearing loss which was incorrect. I never saw a ENT after but have had many hearing tests with a slow decline.
