Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had ear tubes put in 3 times in my childhood and I have a lot of scaring in my ears. I am now 32 and had some ear pressure/hearing problems after flying. I went to ENT and had a hearing test done and it was within “normal range.” About a week later I had a follow up with the ENT doctor. His nurse came in and asked if I wanted tubes put in. I told her no. She left and came back and said he wanted to look at my ears under a microscope. Once I was laying down he proceeded to numb my ear and put a tube in!!! I am appalled by this and now I can’t hear anything. He told me to “call in a week and if I hate it he will remove it?” I don’t know what to do and there is no information online about this. I am scared I am going to have further hearing damage. I can no longer hear out of the ear he put a tube in. Please help!
