Attico antrostomy radical modified mastoidectomy due to choleteatoma / advice

[Guest guest]

After years of having ear infectionsand lots of different operations

in my left ear.

4 weeks ago I had a attico antrostomy radical modified mastoidectomy

due to having cholesteatoma. I had an MRI scan which turned out to be

fine. Since then my ear has been running every morning and I am

concerned that I still have cholesteatoma or is this normal after

surgery for your ear to discharge. I see my consultant next week but

I am quite anxious about this. Could anyone give me some advice please

Hi,

Drainage after surgery is perfectly normal after surgery. Usually

redish to redish yellow in color. Hope everything else is going

well.
