  4. Ear drum rupture. Increase my problem?

Ear drum rupture

2019-01-26 13:40:28
I had met with an accident on 6th November 2018, underwent a maxillofacial surgery on 15th for multiple fracture on face. Had blood clot in right ear. After cleaning that, got diagnosed with ruptured ear drum in both ear and infection in left one. I have hearing loss. Can I take a flight of 2hrs or will it increase my problem?

Use silicone earplugs to protect your ears throughout your flight and remove them only after you disembark the flight. Take plenty of hot fluids(soups/beverages) throught the flight.
