Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Earlier this week I had a conversation with a 40-something male who about 8 years ago was diagnosed with otosclerosis (abnormal bone formation) in his left ear and had surgery to replace the stapes w/a prosthesis. After recovering from surgery his hearing returned though over the years it has diminished to 40% with continued calcification and probable continued loss of hearing. He does not want to go through another surgery/recovery. His question to me: can acupuncture treatment help -- by stopping further bone formation to retain his 40% hearing? or help decrease formatin to improve his hearing? I cannot find information on how to approach this. Karen Wilson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
