Ear Surgery at Eye and Ear Hospital International

The recovery time after ear surgery varies, depending on the condition and type of ear surgery you have. It typically takes several weeks until you can return to your normal daily activities. Some people can go back to work within a week or two, while others may need four to six weeks until they can return to work. Strenuous activities, such as intense exercise and heavy lifting, should be avoided for several months. Make sure to talk to your surgeon about the detailed recovery timeline.

The success rate of each surgery is different. In general, ear surgery is a safe procedure with high success rates. The surgery is effective in treating problems with the ears. For instance, stapedectomy has a success rate of around 90%. Still, you need to be aware that there are some side effects and risks carried out by each procedure, such as infection, bleeding, and loss of hearing.
