Hi , I am 2 days post ear drum repair with skin graft. I am still in considerable pain in and around the ear. As I have a surgical ear pack in the ear as well I am also deaf on that side ! Was just wondering if anyone else on here could advise on recovery timeline if they have had the same surgery ? I dont recall the surgeon giving much advice pre surgery about what to expect afterwards. I am supposed to be back at work in 2 days as didnt expect to be in a lot of pain . When Ive done my own research the reccommended time off is 1 -2 weeks !!
hi Iām due the same surgery next month
any insight into the recovery would be great
