Head trauma after tympanoplasty

2022-09-28 11:24:53
My father had a tympanoplasty + mastoidectomy 2 days ago, on his left ear. Today he hit his right side of head in the toilet after which he felt slight sharp touch in his left ear once or twice, 30 minutes after he hit his head. Could the graft have displaced? Or it should be okay?

Graft will not get displaced, but the thing i cannot help but notice is that why did he hit his head in toilet. Is he feeling dizzy or Vertigo which may happen after a mastoidectomy and if severe may indicate labyrinthine irritation which needs to be diagnosed early and managed.
