See doctor: You need to be checked out. If there are clear vesicles or facial weakness you might need to start treatment with medication within 72 hours ( for ramsey hunt syndrome) or you may have another type of infection like otitis media or otitis externa

I have been told i need surgery as my ear canals are closing. Is this necessary? I went deaf in my left ear. My gp sent me to a e.N.T specialist and then he sent me to an ear specialist. They all suggested I have surgery as my ear canals are so minute.
