Is There Any Other Solution To Cure Otosclerosis Other Than Surgery?

Hi, I am suffering from Otosclerosis. Doctors have suggested surgical procedure called Stapedectomy. I am 31 years old. I want to know whether to go ahead with the surgery and how effective is it or there are other ways of solving this? Can this problem reoccur after sometime even after the surgery? Thanks, Saurabh

Hi,
I have gone through your query; if you are suffering from the otosclerosis better to go the stapedectomy surgery but it is absolute necessary to rule out the other causes of the hearing loss.

You may try the sodium fluoride tablet 20 mg twice a day for 1 month.

Wish you good health
