What precautions should I take after an eardrum surgery and how long should I avoid washing my hair to prevent water from entering the ear
After eardrum surgery, it's crucial to keep the ear dry and avoid activities that could put pressure on the ear. Generally, you should avoid washing your hair or showering for at least a week after surgery and for up to 6 weeks, you should prevent water from entering the operated ear.

I'm feeling a lot better from the dizziness after taking Vertin16 three times a day for 15 days, just like the doctor told me. I've been keeping up with the neck exercises, as suggested. But I'm a bit concerned about what to do if the vertigo comes back in a few months. Should I just start on Vertin16 again for another 15 days, or is there any other treatment or approach I should think about?
Folllow your doctor sadvice and yes you can use that tablet when ever needed.
