Movement felt after tympanoplasty
18 days after tympanoplasty, something inside ear feels like it has shrunken and is moving a bit whenever I apply cotton over the ear. I hope it's nothing to worry?

Nothing to worry.
In general Abgel is there inside the ear which gives a heavy feel till 2 month then it automatically absorbs.
Next Steps
Consult the operating surgeon for physical otoscopic examination.
