This an operation which requires a surgeon to have a look inside the right ear to look for disease/take out any disease that may be situated inside it. Then the surgeon will repair the perforated eardrum with a skin graft from the insection. Then the hospital will keep the patient in for one night before they can go home.
P.S I'm only 13 and I know all this! :P
P.P.S this is probably due to I am having this procedure tomorrow!
