A member asked:
Is it possible to break a bone in your ear? if so, what is the typical treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Let me explain: The bones in the inner ear, called ossicles, can break or be otherwise damaged if a person is hit too hard. An ear infection can also cause damage to the ossicles. You need an ear , nose and throat specialist.
