Brief Answer:
Unsafe ear cannot be cured by medicine

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your query and understand your worry and concern; and suggest you that unsafe ear cannot be cure by medicine.

I would like to inform that CSOM has traditionally been classified into safe ear disease and unsafe ear disease. Safe or unsafe depends on the presence of cholesteatoma. Unsafe CSOM involves cholesteatoma. Cholesteatoma is a non-malignant but destructive lesion of the skull base.

Regards
