If the ear tube is inserted, the presence of fluid behind it is detected by a scratch thrown on the eardrum, and if there is a relatively sticky dark liquid that we call glue, the tube is placed on the eardrum, which is part of the tube behind the eardrum, in front of the part, and provides ventilation because the middle is a hole .
The duration of the operation Varies depending on all these attempts., the application of inserting an ear tube takes 10 minutes. In patients who have an ear tube installed, we recommend a silicone plug or Vaseline cotton plug for the ear in the bathroom. In fact, because of the intraocular pressure, although water is not easy to escape behind the eardrum, we usually hear ear blockage from patients, especially in the summer. For this reason, this process can be facilitated by making plugs from hearing aid companies according to the ear pattern.
Patients with this triple surgery are called for a check-up in the first week medication , diet and considerations that need to be considered are repeated and called for a check-up again after 1 month. Patients with ear tubes are regularly followed every 2-3 months. Ear tubes remain in the eardrum for 6 to 24 months, and 99% of them fall into the external ear canal, and the doctor takes them from there. In rare cases, the tubes that are prolonged to fall and cause problems (such as infection) are taken by the doctor. In this case, the probability of a hole in the eardrum increases, so it should be followed closely again. The eardrum, which cannot repair itself, should be closed immediately at the appropriate age and time.
After surgery performed with appropriate indications, results are obtained, especially in children. Children's sleep patterns are ensured, their appetite is regulated and their growth development is accelerated. Because they get rid of frequent infections, their school life becomes more successful.
