I have posted before but still looking..

I broke the bone in my ear a couple of years back and despite a surgery, the operation wasn't succesfull and the bone in my ear is still moving.

Does anyone know of a good surgeon? Im based in London but would consider anywhere in the UK and possibly around the world.

    Have you seen any of the ENT consultants at The London Bridge Hospital?    May be worth a Google.    I wonder what difficulties this is giving you? Which bone was broken?

    Hi Marina - i havent yet. Do any of them come particulary recommended and specialis in the ear alone?

    Hi Audrey - i pierced my eardrum a few years ago and broke/fractured the bone behind my ear. I have to keep equalising to get more comfortable. I think its the mastoid bone?

    There are quite a few 10+ ENT consultants specialising in different types of ENT surgery,so have a look at them on the LBH website. Each one has the type of surgery described.

    It may be that there is no easy cure for this so do be prepared.    Also do make sure your health insurance will cover you if that is how you intend to pay.   If you dont have insurance be prepared for costs in £thousands.
