ear sticking out

(1/3) > >>

Yvette:
Hi all, has anyone been left with a "Dumbo" ear post op? I'm 3 months post translab, and am beginning to realize that my ear is not going to go back in place. Yvette

Boppie:
Yvette, My ear stuck out more than the good side and more than it ever did pre op.  This went away as the incision drew up and the cavity in the back filled itself in.  Also, I could feel a big dented area behind the ear post op.  Now at 15 months the dent feels more like a slit again. Hang in there!

Yvette:
Thank you Boppie,

Yvette:
Thank you Boppie-I will wait it out then. I wonder if anyone has had their ear fixed post op by a plastic surgeon.

Hi Yvette,
Welcome to the forum.  I just read your post on Dan's thread.  You mentioned that your AN was 3mm and already pressing on the brain stem. I thought that despite the location such tiny AN will not press the stem.  Mine was 2cm and barely touching it.  Now you have me really scared.  But I am happy that you are doing well.
