If hearing loss is severe or if there is associated nerve weakness doctor may not opt for surgery. Hearing aids are any way beneficial as surgery for severe tympanosclerosis may not be very successful
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
