Medical Conditions - Myringotomy

Myringotomy relieves ear pressure due to the build-up of fluid, blood, or pus within the middle ear. In this procedure, an incision is made to create a hole in the eardrum through which the excess fluid build-up or pus drains. At times, a tube may be inserted into the hole to aid in drainage.
