A member asked:
I went to my gp last week and she looked in my right ear and said there is a little hole in my eardrum and fluid behind my eardrum i have lost my hearing in this ear and can only hear the fluid move around any advice?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It will heal: The ear drum is constantly growing and it will heal the hole over time. Hang in there it’ll get better!
