[AlternativeAnswers] Ear problems

 

My daughter has been tested to have bad hearing and just started wearing hearing aids. The otolaryngologist she started seeing has said
1. her eardrums are stretched and damaged
2. her stapies bone (one of the tiny 3 in each ear) is deteriorated
3. her adenoids are not shrunken as appropriate to her age

He wants to do surgery to firm up the eardrums, repair the bone with cartelidge from behind the ear, and remove the adenoids if they seem enlarged to the point that they are blocking her hearing at all.

Although the entire thing is very concerning, I am especially confused about the adenoid part. The doctor explained he would not remove these unless it seemed to contribute towards the overall ability to hear, and if they are unusually large. From what I read, the presence of a large adenoid is only a marker for some deeper problem, and obviously the surgeon is not concerned with this. I can not afford to consult with a homeopath or the type of naturopath I would like to, so I'm looking here for help.

thanks
