Re: Prayers, Thoughts, and Hopes Needed.

The ears are connected to the network of sinus cavities throughout the head. When you go into the ear canal, before you get to the inner ear, there's a drainage point leading to the sinus cavities.

If you've ever blown your nose too hard and had your ears get blocked up, that's why. Or if you get a bad cold, you can't hear all that great.

They probably fed a flexible instrument through his ear, took the turn before reaching the inner ear, and popped it out. I'm sure they numbed him first because otherwise that would hurt like a sonofabitch.
