My husband's left ear got injured because of a accidental insertion of paint brush that to on the sharp side(July 2017) And he was bleeding at the time... Then we went to some local ENT  Dr, said it was perforated ear drum repair and it  would need surgery if that does not get healed after 3 or 4 months.. And they prescribed  anti biotics and pain killers. Since we don't have insurance policy in that clinic,  we went to one popular  hospital to fix appointment... There, they said, source of infection is from nose and we need to operate nose first and then to ear. And also said  nose is not treated well, the problem for perforated Era drum repair will get worsen even after ear which might result in  second time surgery in the year. Currently, He has 60%hearing loss and frequent nasal and throat issues. Is that case is really interlinking one or is this something exaggerating?? Kindly help me on this issue.
