To prevent sneezing and coughing antihistaminvs will be added in post operative prescription

Hi Owing to the age of your father, I would want to look at his CT scan prior to deciding for tympanoplasty . Also would want to know his otoscopy findings. Infection due to hearing aid is also common. It need not be related to middle ear & in that case he would not benefit from surgery May i know his indication for hearing aid?

Hello , main complications post tympanoplasty are graft failure(i.e. failure of surgery), ear discharge. There are some precautions to be followed in post operative for success and healing

Hi Your concerns are genuine but once your father will undergo the procedure the operating surgeon will guide you with respect to management. Alot of factors come into play as only the operating surgeon knows the kind of disease your father has and remedies available for him.

Avoid sneezing and foreceful blowing

Complete course of antibiotics. Do not let water to go inside the ear. Do not lift heavy weight, avoid straining. While Sneezing keep mouth open. Take care do not catch cold

Hey, its good you are planning his surgery just post op the precautions is to avoid food and environment in which he can catch cold , keep the operated ear dry, avoid lifting heavy objects and do not strain while defecating and dont use straw . He would be requiring a course antibiotics and antihistaminics and antibiotic ear drops prescribed by the surgeon and concerned surgeon will guide you more accurately depending the disease noted during the surgery.
