canaloplasty/surfer's ear
 

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone out there had a canaloplasty done to cure the surfer's ear problem.

How long were you grounded for? Any earing loss after the intervention?

P.S: Surfer's ear: bone growth in the ear canal after long exposure to cold water, can lead to earing loss as the ear canal shrinks.

Thanks.

I too would be interested in anyones experience with the above. Too many tubes man!:E

MAX:cool:

Can lead to dropped 'aitches' (H) too by the looks of it.
Frightening!:}

Had both ears cleared by surgery. No problems anymore.

regards

Sorry, don't have experience of surgery, but I belive shaped plugs can be used as a preventative measure.
