Hi..
Thanks for the query..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that your mother is suffering from perforation in ear drum causing the symptoms..

It is possibly seen in cases of chronic ear infection that can damage the ear drum leading to loss of hearing and blocked ear..

In case if there is minor perforation antibiotics, anti-inflammatory painkillers and steroids are given to heal..

But in case if the medicines do not work surgical correction has to be done..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
