Exostosis generates an excessive growth of the bone in the auditory canal, resulting in the loss of hearing and can lead to deafness in the worst cases. In addition, the bone growth allows waste and bacteria to sit in the canal, which in turn increases the case of ear infections.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003csmall\u003eA STUDY CONDUCTED\u003c\/small\u003eBY SURGEONS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA study conducted by surgeons in the South West of France in 2010 concluded that there was no protective equipment that addressed the specific needs of water sports participants wishing to prevent it, in particular in terms of hearing, balance and fit. Surgery is the only solution to address exostosis once it is installed.
