As I said before, sneeze with open mouth to avoid any graft displacement. If the graft d gets displaced,you will get to feel a blocked sensation or worsening of hearing. If pus is coming from the ear then it is confirmatory that the ear has got infected. At any sign of these, please visit your surgeon again to confirm and get treatment

If you get a sudden sneeze during the first 4 weeks after tympanoplasty remember to open your mouth wide while sneezing.  That will reduce the pressure on the ear drums.
