What is granuloma on the eardrum?

Infected tissue: Granulomas, wherever they occur, are infected tissue. On the ear drum area, they are often seen coming from ear tubes. It should be treated with a topical antibiotic and steroid combination like ciprodex. A follow-up exam should occur after treatment by an ENT, for a diagnosis and further treatment or biopsey if not resolved.

Infection: This is most likely due to an ear infection of the middle ear, otitis media, or ear canal (otitis external). You should be on dry ear precautions. You need a hearing test. You may need a ct scan. Consider seeing an otologist.
