Myringotomy

Myringotomy is a surgical procedure that involves making a small incision in the eardrum (tympanic membrane) to relieve pressure or drain fluid from the middle ear. This procedure is commonly used to treat conditions such as chronic otitis media (middle ear infection), ear infections with fluid buildup, or barotrauma (damage to the ear due to pressure changes).
