Robbies medpor ear for the most part had been looking pretty good for the last couple weeks. On Sunday when he woke I noticed it was swollen. There was also a red bump on the top of the medpor and the ear canal had a milky looking substance filling it. I took some pictures and again emailed Dr Reinisch to let him know what was going on. Dr. Reinisch called me on Monday afternoon and said it looks like a bug bite which he sees alot of in the summer. He called in some antibiotics and it is looking better since he has been taking the medicine. Everyday at bath time the medpor drains a puss or a clear liquid from the same spot but it continues to be less each night.
Today we went to the ENT to get the canal checked. I was completely shocked by how much stuff they pulled out of the canal. The ENT said there is definatly an infection in the canal and to keep doing the drops and medicine as instructed by Reinisch. There was a part of the canal where he said the skin graph was elevated. There has been some concern of a possible medpor exposure but I guess its a wait game to see how everything goes with the medicines. I just hope everything heals up and we can keep our stage 2 for August. Please keep us in your prayers.
