The Naugatuck Valley ENT team can manage cholesteatoma through various methods. Typically, complete removal of the skin or cyst requires surgical intervention. Before surgery, we may need to carefully clean your ear and prescribe medications to stop the drainage. These medications can be oral antibiotics, topical antibiotics, or both. Keeping the ear dry during this treatment period is advised. Contact Naugatuck Valley ENT at (203) 578-4630 to schedule an appointment.
