Ear perforation

2025-07-11 03:25:04
My wife is having frequent ear infection in left ear. 15years back she did a surgery on left ear. Again she is feeling some periodical issues and taking medication and it settles. When we check doctors they suggested for operation and second opinion suggested no operation can manage the infection with medications. Attaching the report if scan did one year back as well as second one taken recently. Need help to decide whether immediate operation is required or can take after 3-4 months
