Eardrum perforation for more than twenty years is generally necessary to repair, so that a certain degree of hearing can be restored.
Eardrum perforation refers to tympanic membrane perforation, if the tympanic membrane perforation is not big, not repaired for more than 20 years and there is no obvious middle ear infection or sensorineural hearing loss during the period, no special treatment can be done, if the perforation is big, repeated infections, and has a big impact on the hearing, it still needs to be repaired.
Currently, the surgery for tympanic membrane perforation repair has been relatively mature, and a CT examination of the middle ear is usually performed before the surgery to assess the middle ear condition and then formulate an appropriate surgical method to repair the tympanic membrane. Minimally invasive endoscopic surgery is also available. Generally, you can get better results.
It is recommended to go to the ENT department of the hospital in time, and improve the relevant examination and standardized treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
