My mom has moderate hearing loss in her left ear and sometimes hears abnormal sounds, but there's no pain. The doctor suggested surgery and did an HRCT of the temporal bone. I'm not sure if surgery is the only option right now are there any alternative treatments we should consider?

Yes, besides surgery, alternative treatments for moderate hearing loss and tinnitus include hearing aids, tinnitus retraining therapy, and potentially certain medications. The best approach depends on the cause of the hearing loss and tinnitus, as determined by the HRCT of the temporal bone and other diagnostic tests.

My 9-year-old has been struggling with tonsillitis for the past week and it's been really tough. Can you tell me more about what the surgery involves for kids this age? I'm worried about how it works and what recovery looks like for them.
It's tough to see your child struggling, but tonsillitis usually resolves on its own within a week or two, especially if it's viral. If your child's condition doesn't improve or if they have any concerning symptoms (like difficulty breathing or swallowing), it's best to consult a doctor
