What is the purpose of tympanoplasty?
to repair the perforated eardrum, and sometimes the middle ear bones (ossicles) that consist of the incus, malleus, and stapes.Tympanoplasty is performed to reconstruct the eardrum after partial or total conductive hearing loss, usually caused by chronic middle ear infections, or perforations that do not heal
Can CROS hearing aids help relieve tinnitus?
Yes, hearing aids can relieve tinnitus if it is caused by presbycusis. If presbycusis is not the cause of the tinnitus, hearing aids will not help at all.
Are earplugs enough protection for your daughters perforated eardrum at a rock concert.It's healing fine but the infection that caused it was 2 weeks ago. Safe to go or not?
CORRECTION ON PREVIOUS ANSWER: It's unlikely the band will make enough sound to damage your daughter's eardrum over just one performance. However, if you're concerned the earplugs you no doubt have for bathing should work just fine.
What causes objective tinnitus?

What Is caused by damage to the eardrum or by constant exposure to loud noise?
Hearing loss

Is there a cure tinnitus?
It is first important to note that tinnitus is not a disease process in and of itself. Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the ears or head. The sounds have been described as ringing, buzzing, hissing, tones, music, etc. Tinnitus is a common side effect of medications. It can also be a symptom of some other disease process. For this reason, it is important to see a specialist, specifically an Ear, Nose, and Throat physician, if you are experiencing tinnitus. They will help you to determine if the tinnitus is being caused by one of your medications, and more importantly they will order special tests that confirm or rule out disease processes for which tinnitus is a symptom. So is there a cure for tinnitus? The answer is that it depends on the underlying cause. Take the necessary steps to determine what is causing the tinnitus, and you'll be that much closer to finding a cure.

Does your eardrum send the vibrations to the three smallest bones in your body?
Yes it does. The three bones - the Hammer, Anvil and Stirrup - are caused to vibrate due to them being connected to the eardrum, or Tympanic Membrane. These virations are then transferred through these bones to the Cochlea, a snail-shaped organ which has minute hairs within it. The hairs vibrate and the Cochlea then sends nerve signals to the brain which 'decodes' them. It is worth noting that these minute hairs are easily damaged by loud noises, and once damaged are irreparable. This is the main cause of tinnitus, hearing loss and deafness.
What is the medical term meaning ringing in the ear?
The proper term for ringing buzzing or roaring in the ears is Tinnitus. The proper medical way to pronounce it is TIN-nit-us, not tin-I-tus (the second pronunciation would denote an inflammation, which tinnitus is not). There are many causes of tinnitus, but in general it is caused by a disruption in the auditory pathway to the brain. The brain tries to interpret the random misfiring that this disruption causes, but it cannot. The hearing center of the brain (temporal lobe) sends the signal to the thinking part of your brain (frontal cortex) to help it out. When it reaches the frontal cortex is when you first perceive it. Hench, you then hear Tinnitus.
Can hearing aids relieve hearing loss caused by tinnitus?
No, it just makes you hear as well as other human beings.
