The doctor who advised you to get your nose operated is a good doctor. This surgery will heal the primary pathology & the nasal sprays administered to you after the nasal surgery will dry up your discharging ear.
Usually I operate upon the Ear only when it has been consistently dry for 3 months which ensures that the graft will succeed.
