How Can Hearing Loss Be Treated?

For about 12 years, I have had abnormally thick fluid in my ear behind my ear drum which caused all 4 sets of ear tubes to be forcefully pushed out. My first doctor had run tests to check for infection but, there never is. I have profound hearing loss in both ears and about every 2 months, I get another infection. When ever I do get another set of ear tubes, they get pushed from the drum within a month and encased in wax and is very painful. We still have no clue what is going on for we have tested for different types of infection, glue ear, and many more. I would greatly love the help
