Myringotomy and Grommet Insertion for Chronic Ear Infections and Hearing Loss
Myringotomy and Grommet Insertion is a commonly performed ear procedure used to treat recurrent middle ear infections and persistent fluid buildup behind the eardrum. At Dr. Pareek’s Deafness Clinic and ENT Centre, we provide advanced Myringotomy and Grommet Insertion using precise microscopic techniques to relieve pressure, improve hearing, and reduce the risk of repeated ear infections. During the procedure, a small incision is made in the eardrum, and a tiny ventilation tube (grommet) is inserted to allow air circulation and fluid drainage from the middle ear.
This safe and effective procedure is suitable for both children and adults experiencing chronic ear problems.
