  • I ask because I've had what sounds light water in my ears for about 5 months now. and the left has become very painful. last week the doctor said he thinks i have glue ear. he gave me a week of antibiotics but nothing changed, and i'm afraid i wont be able to take the plane ride home for Christmas. he did refer me to a specialist but the appointment is not for 2 months. i was just wondering if there is sure way to know you have it through symptoms..... :(

  • @avayomama As usually otolaryngologist treats the glue ear. At least, as in Ukraine. As I said you need to test: audiogram and tympanogram. After that otolaryngologist determines the tactics of the treatment. What can I advise? - arrive in Ukraine and I can heal you! :)

  • how do you know for sure you have glue ear?

  • @avayomama  presence of the glue ear is detected by various medical examinations, such as Tympanometry

  • Firstly - it is not my ear)) - is a joke)). All microsurgical operations are performed under control by the operating microscope. My microscope has a digital video camera.

  • can this be done without general anesthetic

  • @waslookat1me Usually, for adults, we do it under local anesthesia.

  • Just last Summer, journey of Meds stated, all those steroids treatments were ineffective with sinus issues. Placebos did just as well...a point i told my doc. Three years ago when i was not getting in relief but no, i was imagining the full sensation, watery movement in my right ear. Today, now its nothing he can do...30$ copay please.

  • Because there is no money in this field, lots of mechanical devices or procedures aren't being done. Heart or brain artery surgery or actual in uterus baby operations happen but not one small device is available to insert inside the exposed E tube to regulate presurre. Basic, Open/shutting dynamics. Wtf

  • Instead of having this surgery you can clear your glue ear at home using this remedy: google Earadicator. it is a cure that I discovered. It is free. (Well i dont charge for the instructions but there is something you need to buy at your local store) and it will clear 90% of clogged ear problems.

  • sorry but the stuff that came out made me gag!

  • i barfed from the sight of that.. not cause it was gross... but cause it looked painful!!!!!!!!! pain does not suit me well..... especially in the ears!!!

  • oh yeah, why am i so addicted to this video?
