Brief Answer:
Septoplasty can cure your Eustachian tube dysfunction

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your query; and personally suggest that you go for the septal correction surgery i.e. Septoplasty. Repairing a deviated septum can help with regularizing airflow over the Eustachian tube opening and normalize the problem.

It very well may cure your Eustachian tube dysfunction if you have severely deviated nasal septum.

But consult your ENT specialist for better diagnosis and management.

Thanks
