I've had constant ear discharge from both ears for a while now and even had tympanoplasty surgery, but it didn't help. I also have mixed hearing loss in both ears. What could be causing this, and are there other treatment options I should consider?
Persistent ear discharge post-tympanoplasty and mixed hearing loss may indicate cholesteatoma or Eustachian tube dysfunction.A CT scan and revision surgery or mastoidectomy may be needed.
