What Causes Nerve Damage?
HI! I have a 5yr old daughter when she was born she passed her hearing test. Since then she has had 2 sets of tubes placed in both ears. She just had her second set about 4 weeks ago. Well she failed her hearing test at school so of course I take her to her specialist and right tube is still in ear and stuck. So, her second surgery 4 weeks ago was removal of second right tube and 2 new ones put in and she took another hearing test yesterday and she failed again audiologist stated she has nerve damage. How did this happen? she has never been in a major accident. Could this have been caused by the doctor? Thanks a concerned Mother

HI
Thank for to HCM,
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history I could say that the child be having congenital condition of partial hearing loss along with the speech difficulty and so why initially test being carried out, the never damage is not iatrogenic, but could be by birth, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
