Very few parents (or GP's for that matter) realise that there is a drug free altenative to a gromett operation available on prescription or over the counter at your local chemist.

The treatment is a balloon that the paitent blows up through there nose, which equalises the pressure behind the eardrum. Has anyone had experience of using an Otovent? Also, did you hear about it from your GP? They have a website at www.gluear.co.uk

im really pleased this has been posted, theres been a few questions asked about my sons hearing recently and his dad and uncles all had glue ear so hes being checked for that and the thought of someone operating on him terrified me, now im armed with an alternative im relaxed and wont postpone the apointment!
