Brief Summary  
The adhesive properties of a dressing could lead to reactive and secondary bleeding in the ear canal, leading to post-operative infections. This ear packing is used in the external and middle ear surgery. The pain associated with removal procedures is not necessary on application of VELNEZ. Also reduces fibrosis at the same time promote healing and clotting. The study has been conducted to assess the effectiveness of a VELNEZ (space occupying dressing pack) after ear surgery on the basis of its healing rate on clinical evaluation and wound analysis.
